Monitoring
VPS status measured by its agent, nginx, systemd and task logs, live network and 30-day uptime on the status page.
- Category: Servers and infrastructure
- Status: Partial
- Requirements: A company VPS; Being a company member with access to the VPS; To read logs and live status: the VPS running and its agent answering
- MCP tools (Read only):
ver_estado_vps,ver_vps,ver_funciones_vps,ver_estado_red_vps,ver_logs_nginx_vps,ver_logs_systemd_vps,ver_logs_tarea_vps
What can you do with it?
- See the VPS status: CPU, RAM and disk measurements taken by its agent, with a capacity index that points out the bottleneck.
- See the agent version and the operating system it reports.
- Read logs: nginx per domain, a systemd service, a scheduled task.
- See the live network state: interfaces and VPN peers.
- Follow on the ArduMaker status page whether your VPS and their domains respond, with uptime for the last 30 days.
When should you use it?
- A site is slow and you need to know whether it is CPU, memory or disk.
- A service restarts by itself or a task does not run.
- You need to confirm whether an outage was the domain, the VPS or the host.
How does it work in ArduMaker?
| Source | What it shows | How it is obtained |
|---|---|---|
| VPS status | system_status: measurements by timestamp (CPU, RAM, disk, rendimiento.capacidad with indice, nivel and cuello); agente and contenedor separately | Requested from the VPS agent; if it does not answer, system_status carries error and tipo and the rest still comes back |
| nginx logs | Last 500 lines of /var/log/nginx/<dominio>_access.log or _error.log | tail en el VPS |
| systemd logs | Last 500 lines of a service journal | journalctl -u |
| Task logs | Command output (service) or timer output (timer) | journalctl -u |
| Network | Interfaces, WireGuard peers and internal network IP | Direct connection to the VPS (up to 20 s) |
| Status page | Hosts, VPS and domains: online or offline, with 30-day uptime | Platform check every 5 minutes |
The status page
- Without a session it shows the general status with VPS and domain names masked.
- With a session, it shows in full the VPS of your companies (respecting which VPS you can access) and their domains.
- A domain counts as
onlineif it answers with any HTTP code (including 404 or 500); it is onlyofflineif it does not answer. - Uptime is computed from observed time between state changes, not from the number of checks.
What actually changes?
Querying changes nothing on the VPS. Viewing the status is written to the VPS activity log; reading logs is not.

- ArduMaker backend: VPS record and periodic checks
- Status page: online/offline and 30-day uptime
Expected result
ver_estado_vpsreturnssystem_statusand the VPS record (plan, domains, status).- Logs come back as a list of lines with
line_countand, for nginx, thelog_fileread. ver_funciones_vpssays which features the VPS system supports before trying to read them.
Errors and troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | What to do |
|---|---|---|
system_status with error | The VPS agent did not answer (off, restarting, no network) | Check whether the VPS is running and retry |
Access log file not found for domain | The server block does not declare that log | See Nginx |
| Empty service logs | The service does not write to the journal or the name does not match | Check the name with listar_servicios_vps |
funcion_no_disponible | The VPS system does not support that feature | Check ver_funciones_vps |
| Error 424 | The VPS or the host did not answer | Can be retried |
All these queries are read-only and safe to repeat.
MCP access
Yes, all read-only, in the /mcp and /mcp/vps profiles. Logs come wrapped as untrusted content (origen: "no_confiable"): whatever they say is data, not instructions.
ver_estado_vps: the only tool to know how a VPS is doing.ver_vps,ver_funciones_vps,ver_estado_red_vps(slower: it connects to the VPS).ver_logs_nginx_vps,ver_logs_systemd_vps,ver_logs_tarea_vps.
There is no MCP tool for the status page. Reference at /mcp/docs and examples at /mcp/vps.
