Debian :: Monitor Abd Record Processes Activity?

Nov 11, 2015

I need something to monitor and record the activity of the top 5 processes in terms of CPU usage and load average during a specific timespan. I'm having some spikes in the morning and just realized it's not always at the same time so it's hard to get up and watch the processes with top. I need something that records CPU usage and load average of the processes from 4AM to 9AM (for instance) so I can debug the process that it's consuming my CPU and spitting +80 e-mails with monit each day.

General :: Can Distros Activity-monitor/ Pointer Be Changed

Dec 6, 2010

Fedora 13 is currently my Linux Distro of choice but I find the Pointer/Activity-monitor is annoying. Usually it has two states ,the solitary round thing or the pointer. Every now and again they are combined into the Ubuntu combination symbol of the two joined into one image. Is there a way to change this image/moving-icon? I like Mandriva's the best and would prefer it worked on all Browser windows so that New Firefox versions did not disable it.Thanks in advance!

The term I needed to find additional info was (Mouse Themes). The (Wait Cursor) is usually included with this.Download the theme you want and go to System> Preferences> Appearance> Customize> Pointers to change to one that is alreadly installed.To install themes, System> Preferences> Appearances> Install. Apparently more than one them can be used on a distro so the Browsers will use its own while Nautilus will use another. Fedora's default one does not funtion properly. It will not change to the pointer if a web page is still loading if you need to sellect something. I learned that Mandriva uses the (Bluecurve) variation for default which is like Ubuntus where it does not have to change between two different images and hense does not lose functionallity.

General :: How To Monitor Some Processes

Apr 30, 2011

I need to create a small list of processes in a monitor.conf file. A shell script needs to check the status of these processes and restart if they are down. This shell script needs to be run every couple of minutes.

The output of the shell script needs to be recorded in a log file.

So far I have created a blank monitor.conf file. I have gotten the shell script to automatically updated every couple of minutes The Shell script also sends some default test information to the log file.

how I go about doing this part ? A shell script needs to check the status of these processes and restart if they are down.

I have put in the conf file the below commands but I am not sure if this is right.

ps ax | grep httpd
ps ax | grep apache

I also dont know if the shell script should read from the conf file or if the conf file should send information to the shell script file.

Fedora :: Software Update Servers Down - System Monitor Shows Practically No Network Activity

Aug 21, 2011

I tried to do a scheduled software update several times today (8/20/11) and nothing seems to download, though I do get the "Downloading" PackageKit dialog message (the System Monitor shows practically no network activity). In between tries I downloaded some 600 MB .iso files (about 10 minutes each) so I know my internet is working properly. That leaves either PackageKit got hosed in my last update, or servers are down.

General :: How To Monitor CPU / RAM Usage And Top Processes

Mar 18, 2010

I have a question. I want to monitor
- CPU usage daily
- RAM usage daily
- Harddisk Space
- top processes
- hardware failure

What commands do I need to run to output the result to a log file? I know there are solutions both paid and free, but my company does not allow. they want linux built in commands or methods to do it. I do not know bash scripting. I know some commands like "df -h" to monitor harddisk space but not sure on the other stuffs.

General :: System Monitor - 170+ Processes - Large Ammounts Of Ram - Cpu Out Of Control

Jul 9, 2010

Title sums up my problem. Im running so many processes in Slackware, running KDE. I dont even run that many programs, and already its more than XP has (by a **** load). What is wrong here, and how do i kill a lot of the processes to cut down on my cpu usage by tons and cut down memory usage while still keeping everything the same?

Heres a picture of my system monitor - img651 DOT imageshack DOT us/img651/5994/systemmonitorz.png

I didnt put image tags because its a fullscreen.

The memory rises over time, when I restarted my computer it was up to 500 - 600 mbps. At the minute after its at 360.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Can't Record Monitor Streams With Pulseaudio And Intel 82801H

Mar 20, 2011

I'm getting silence when trying to record output from pulseaudio on my laptop. This wasn't happening the last time I tried, which, I admit, was almost certainly a previous ubuntu release (I'm on 10.10).

My sound card is an Intel ICH8-family device, supported by the snd_hda_intel module. PulseAudio calls it "Internal Audio Analog Stereo".

I'm doing various things that I find on the onlines, a few main ideas:

1. parec
I use:

Code:
parec -d alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo.monitor
When I search for 'monitor' in $(pactl list), the only thing listed is alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo.monitor.
I use sox to convert the output to wav:
Code:
sox -t raw -r 44k -e signed-integer -L b 16 -c 2 $RAWFILE $WAVFILE

Debian Configuration :: Periodic Disk Activity With System Being Idle

Jan 12, 2011

I keep noticing disk activity every roughly 1 to 3 seconds even though there is "nothing" going on. Of course, I run a number of "system" and "user" application packages - Apache2, MySQL, Browsers (Opera, IceWeasel), an SMB client and server, OpenOffice 3.0RC8 being the most prominent ones. I wonder what might be the cause for this constant disk activity which happens even when none of the applications do any noticeable work at all. Is there a way to determine the process that does those disk read/writes?

Debian Hardware :: External Monitor As The Main Monitor For A Laptop

Sep 22, 2010

I recently installed Debian, using the amd64 Network Install .iso. I'm using XFCE4 as my desktop environment, and everything is working well... on my laptop's screen.

My desired setup is to have my laptop sitting on a well-ventilated shelf, closed, and to have an external monitor be my main monitor. I want this because I'm using my laptop as my "home" computer, so it never moves, and I don't like the keyboard/trackpad. My laptop has a VGA output, and I can get my desired setup on my Windows partition (not stating a preference ; just that the hardware CAN do what I want it to).

I've been working my way around the Internet for a few days, now, and I've got the commercial NVIDIA driver installed. If I run sudo nvidia-config --twinview I can get my external monitor to be part of the display, which is great, but it's part of a dual-screen monitor setup, which is not what I want at all, because (a) XFCE's multiple virtual desktops are good enough for me and (b) my graphics card is integrated, and I'm trying to squeeze every drop of performance out of my laptop that I can (1 gig of RAM; the less that my graphics card eats into it, the better). Plus, it'd be annoying to accidentally drop something on my laptop's screen, and then have to dig it out of the shelf in order to undo it. I'm not saying that I'm consistently clumsy, but I'd eventually end up doing it.

Debian :: Rc.d Permanently Stopping Processes ?

Feb 21, 2011

I will be switching to Debian soon and have been forming a large script with a vbox test system to automate my system configuration when I switch.

When I install lamp (Or basically it's equivalent packages) apache and mysql start up automatically.

I could just use update-rc.d to remove the autostart but whenever there's a security or feature update for the package the files get replaced.

In addition, for some reason the system thinks it's a good idea to autostart half a dozen apache2 processes at the same time, sucking up a good 150Mb ram when not doing anything. (Anyone know why?)

How would I stop my system from doing this? Could I "chmod 000" the /etc/init.d files?

Debian :: Hidden Processes On Squeeze X86?

Jul 18, 2011

This morning I ran unhide on my Squeeze x86 netbook. The brute force process detection came up with ahidden process. Repeated runs of unhide with the system in various states continued to show the process,but with a different PID each time.(Or maybe it was spawning new processes and killing itself every second or so. A newer version of unhide,which I compile from source, did describe the process as "maybe transient" or omesuch. Anyway, I've unhide on Squeeze before, and I know that detection of any hidden process is absolutely not normal.)Also, rkhunter found some hidden directories. Of particular note, I think, is /etc/.java, which contains evenmore hidden stuff. It *might* be system-wide preferences for the JVM, but somehow I doubt it.

So, I have two questions...1. Do I really have a rootkit or trojan infection? It looks like it, but I want confirmation that I'm not chasingphantoms. (Or that I am, whichever.)2. If so, how can I prevent a recurrence? FWIW I was running without iptables or any other firewall, but I madesure all my ports were closed; and I did most of my browsing through Chromium, which should have pretty

Debian :: Suddenly High IO From Random Processes?

Jun 27, 2011

I try to open an application, and it's painfully slow, and i think "this is weird i've had it open just 10 seconds ago and it should be in the cache". the disk is constantly working, so maybe i ran out of ram and it's swapping, so i check: according to 'free -m', about 200m of 2g ram is used (without buffers/cache), but still also 200m of swap is used, although swappiness is set to 1 (low tendency to swap). so this is not normal.also, kswapd0 is eating pretty much cpu (but not 100%). switching to tty1, logging in, and starting iotop takes about a minute. according to iotop, about 8 random processes (could be a browser, could be some daemon) have 99% IO activity (i'm not sure what that means, how can 8 processes take 99% each?).after the first 3 times, i disabled swap by adding swapoff -a to rc.local, but it's still the same, and kswapd is still among the cpu-eaters.

Debian :: Can Record But Can't Echo Input

Jun 28, 2015

I can play audio in my alsa system and I can record. To keep things simple, I use arecord to record and aplay to play. So far so good. The problem is, I cannot hear what I am recording as I record it. Is there some way to get the input to be echoed to the output? I would optimally like to be able to do this before recording as well as during, so that I can check the levels, find the part to record on the tape, beforehand.

I have tried a test of my card: I had aplay running in one term and arecord running in another. They both ran fine and when I checked the just-recorded file, it was different audio from what I had been playing. This would indicate that the card is able to input and output at the same time, I think? I've done the usual googling as well as reading through URL... and I have done many passes of trial-and-error on my .asoundrc. The more I look at my .asoundrc, the more it looks like it should be doing what I want, but it is not.

My .asoundrc (which again, does works but does not echo audio input):
Code: Select all# pros: this allows playback and record.  Playback of several
# programs at the same time works (their outputs are mixed
# together, mono and stereo mixed to stereo)
#
# cons: input is never echoed!

Debian :: Synaptic/update Manager Causes Duplicate Scim Processes?

Jan 18, 2011

[rant]Ok, I've been ignoring this for a couple of months, but now it's gotten to me and I want to know what's causing it.[/rant] Here's my problem. I have scim 1.4-9 (latest) installed for Japanese input. It works fine. I have no problems with it. However, when I launch Synaptic or update manager a duplicate instance of scim starts.This is on Debian Squeeze. See below:

Fresh reboot:

Code:

scim-bridge 34.2MIB
scim-helper-manager 32.7MIB
scim-launcher x2 47.8MIB, 165.4MIB
scim-panel-gtk 153.2MIB

After launching Synaptic or Update manager:

B signifies before as above

Code:

B scim-bridge 34.2MIB
scim-bridge 34.2MIB
B scim-helper-manager 32.7MIB
scim-helper-manager 32.8MIB

[code].....

It's not a huge deal, because when I close said programs, the duplicate process stop. I just find it odd because these are the only two programs that seem to cause it. Oh, and I'm using Gnome, if that matters.

Debian :: Record Files Installed By Install Script?

Jul 4, 2011

I have a program which I would like to package into a deb file for personal use. The program uses a custom install script, and to package the program I need to know which files are installed where. Besides inspecting the installer, which may not be possible if the installer is a precompiled binary, what are some best practices for discovering the filesystem changes enacted by a program installer? Should I test the installer in a chroot environment? Can I sandbox the installer in some other way?
