Fetch the Apache server-status in compact form

harmlessApachedebian, ubuntu
Adjust the values, the command updates live
user@server
curl -s "http://localhost/server-status?auto"

Fetches the mod_status page in the compact ?auto format. The key values are BusyWorkers, IdleWorkers and ReqPerSec, while the scoreboard shows the state of each slot (_ waiting, W sending reply, K keepalive). On Debian, mod_status is enabled by default and only reachable from localhost.

Note: Never expose this page publicly, it reveals requested URLs and client IPs.

Open question before approval: Unter Plesk lauscht Apache hinter nginx auf Port 7080 und der Zugriff auf /server-status kann durch die Plesk-Konfiguration anders geregelt sein. Richtige URL auf einem Plesk-System prüfen.
