Monitor transactions on private chain

Question

I have a consortium chain (I have access to all machines where the nodes are running, but can't stop or restart them), and want to monitor what's happening on a high level. Similar to what ganache does:

Does geth offer something like this? (I know I can subscribe to events from web3.js and the likes, this is about any existing solutions available)

This link (https://ethereum.stackexchange.com/questions/13667/ethereum-private-chain-explorers) and the dupe might help point you in the right direction. — Richard Horrocks, Mar 26 '19 at 13:27
Could you describe some use cases, what kind of events you want to monitor and what also you want to do with your nodes? — Mikhail Vladimirov, Mar 26 '19 at 14:05
Just added a picture of how it looks in ganache-cli. I actually started writing some script myself to do this, but it's a bit hacky and I can't imagine nobody else has that some requirement — Alex, Mar 26 '19 at 15:11

Try running your geth nodes with --verbosity debug or --verbosity detail.

just clarified in my question - the nodes are running and I can get on the machines (and geth attach), but can't do anything with them – Alex Mar 26 '19 at 14:02
@Alex If you have console access you can try to increment the verbosity level debug.verbosity. – Ismael Mar 27 '19 at 21:49
