The Experiment Telemetry command enables the Experiment Administrator to login to the Hackystat server and generate charts that monitor the progress and activities of the experimental subjects. In essence, the Experiment Telemetry command provides "client-side" monitoring.

Another kind of monitoring available in Hackystat is "server-side", and it is available through the "PingMail" program. PingMail allows the Experiment Administrator to set up a regularly running task that checks that the Hackystat server is available and sends an email to the Experiment Administrator with the status of the server. Section 9.8, “Monitoring server "health" with PingMail” documents this command in detail.
