(also called the central processing unit, or CPU).
Network Trac: Track how much incoming and outgoing data the server transfers
over the network.

disk or volume (partition).
File Sharing Trac: Track how much incoming and outgoing data the le sharing

You can also monitor server activity using the Server Status widget on the server or
on another computer on the network. For information, see “Using the Server Status
Widget” on page 75.
If the server has a display, you can use Activity Monitor (located in /Applications/
Utilities/) on the server. Activity Monitor shows the processes and applications that are
currently open on the computer. You can also use Activity Monitor to monitor short-
term processor workload, disk activity, and network activity. For information about
using Activity Monitor, open it and then use the Help menu.
