I know bb4 do that quite well and it's portable on unix and windows.
I think mrtg do something like that as well (disk use, load of the processor)

Subject: server monitoring program
Looking for a recommendation of a server monitoring program to use.
I'm responsible for serveral different websites that are run on
independent ISP/hosts. A couple of these sites are on Win2K boxes, and
a couple on Linux.
I'm looking for a program that does simple testing to see if these sites
are "just up and running" (i.e. as simple as a periodic ping). Almost
needless to say, I'm not on the same network as these machines, so
firewalls will be present on both my end and the server end.
I'll run the program from a Debian box.
Thanks
Kevin
