# Inspecting Ncloud Tool Kit

Available in VPC

Linux Ncloud Tool Kit (Linux NTK) is a tool kit for Linux VMs provided on NAVER Cloud Platform. You can easily operate and maintain NCP VM through server status diagnosis and Disk I/O measurement features.

## Diagnosis of server status

You can use the SYSTEM CHECKING tool in NTK to diagnose the state of the Linux server, identify symptoms and causes, and check the troubleshooting measures.

              Note

              

The items for diagnosing server status differ according to the types of hypervisor hosting VM.

## Measuring block storage IOPS

You can measure the performance of the storage connected to the Linux server by using FIO TEST tool of NTK.

              Note

              

This feature only applies to XEN-based Linux VM.

### Step 1. Run NTK

To run NTK on a Linux server, follow these steps:

1. Enter the `cd /usr/local/etc` command.

- Move to the path where NTK is located.

1. Enter the `tar zxvf ntk.tar.gz` command.

- The NTK file is unzipped.
- If you do not have the ntk.tar.gz file or want to replace it with the latest version,  

enter `wget -P /usr/local/etc http://init.ncloud.com/server/ntk/linux/xen/ntk.tar.gz` to download the file.

1. Enter the following commands in the given order to run NTK.

```
cd /usr/local/etc/ntk
./ntk
```

### Step 2. Run FIO TEST

If you need to measure disk IOPS, do the following:
