Discovered a simple script that allows you to monitor your server in a quick glance.
Found here: https://www.ezservermonitor.com/esm-sh/documentation
Comes with a web version as well if you are so inclined.
I opted for the bash script for its simplicity especially with dependencies; None.
One issue I came across was an error in the script due to the fact that it was written on a windows platform.
Bad interpreter: No Such File ^M
Solution: sed -i -e 's/\r$//' <scriptname.sh>
Others sugest rewriting the whole script in your unix environment. Others still, suggest you use dos2unix
