I wonder to know the command or the procedure to get the overall CPU utilisation in linux. I have used top, iostat, mpstat but the outputs are not the way i needed. Is it possible to get the output like...
CPU usage: .....% or something like that.
I am running Slackware 13.0. I am aware of free -m, vmstat, top, etc. However, none of these programs display how much ram each program is using. Is there a program that displays how much ram each program is using? I run a headless so I'd need a program that runs in CLI.
I know that top command shows %MEM (only two programs were using 0.1%MEM) but after running free -m I only have a total of 400 MB ram left out of my 1.5 GB of ram. Where is all that lost ram?
I have one dedicated server in godaddy. Now I got mail regarding overage bandwidth. I don't know how to check this and I must give report how its happen.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI usually use "top" command to check the resource usage , it is very good and simple method to know the status ( loading , CPU , memory usage ), but we have many servers so we can't check the servers frequently , so we can't find the problem before the problem happens
Any method / script that I can implement to send us a alert mail if the resource usage reach a specific level , for example , if the CPU usage reach 90% , then send us a alert mail.
I'm running into a problem where my system is running out of disk space on the root partition, but I can't figure out where the runaway usage is. I've had a stable system for a couple of years now, and it just ran out of space. I cleaned some files up to get the system workable again, but can't find the big usage area, and I'm getting conflicting results.For example, when I do a df it says I'm using 44GB out of 58 GB:
Code:
[root@Zion ~]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

I am sure that all of us know the result of top command in linux. i want to get the value that the top command return as CPU usage, memory usage. so how do i do(programming relation)?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've come across a really strange issue with one of my RHEL servers. The "free" command shows that 7019 MB of memory are actually in use by my system, but when summing up the actual usage (or even virtual usage like the example below) it doesn't add up - the sum is far less than what is reported by "free":
Code:
[root@server1 ~]# free -m

I am currently writing a JAVA script to monitor certain unix processes through JConsole. Upon having lots of trouble with runtime.exec, i decided to bypass the top/ps command call and just get the information straight from /proc/*pid*/whatever.Now i can pull back any information from any of the files I want, and the current way i determine the CPU usage of a process is as follows:Add the UTime and STime of that process from /proc/pid/stat then divide my pidCpu by UTime + STime + NTime from /proc/stat, then multiply that by 100, should give me the % cpu usage a process is using, right?Theory being if I get the jiffies assigned to my process, I can divide that by the total jiffies the cpu assigns.
However, my results seem to vary from the ones gathered from top and ps. What am I doing wrong?
If I, using sar or vmstat, found that there is a CPU load on my Linux box. How can I know the top processes consuming the CPU?

Since I've uninstalled and reinstall the agent and same issue.is it possible to set the CPU Usage?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am new to Debian but not Linux-based systems. I have been experimenting a lot with Debian Lenny/Squeeze. I am growing more comfortable each day with the Debian design. Yet there remain many unexplored areas. I am creating a migration check list. Things to check, prepare, or reconfigure when moving from one Linux-based system to Debian.
I have a good computer background and my current check list probably is fairly good. Yet I would appreciate input and opinions from experienced Debian users of things to watch in such a migration. Login defs, passwd/group files, different directory locations, keymaps, services and daemons, etc. I am not too concerned with the desktop as I plan to stick with KDE 3.5 for a while and I can basically move those settings across.
I want to put check menu & check list in utility dialog.i dont know how i do this

Linux: Is there something similar to "top" for I/O?
I am trying to do some CPU intensive operation on a Linux machine and it is showing very high load.
I want to figure out if this load is due to I/O or CPU usage. How could I get the percentage of I/O usage by process?
I'm writing a shell script which aims to create a safe gtared (xxx.sql.gz) copy of MySQL databases.This script is planned to be Cron-Jobed.
Well, what I need to add to this shell, is something that limit CPU usage for the whole process (just in case if the database being generating is a huge one.)So, after few time of googling I found couple of solutions:
- Using cpulimit.
I tried to place the code in Position(1) and Position(2) but it didn't seem to be working fine.. Any idea about the right use?
And the other Solution is:- Using nice.
Well, assuming I named my shell script (sqlbacker)..
Finally, this is my first time I ever write a shell, so correct me if somewhere I made a mistake :-)
(The script itself works perfectly)
I think To get the full value from your ram on windows you need to have a 64bit install version installed, can someone tell me if its the same with linux or Unix. I have 9gb of ram on my PC & wanted to know if I it matters if I use a 32bit Distro or if I need a 64bit on my 64bit PC to utilize all the ram.

At the moment with some live linux distributions I run "free -m", on the terminal of the graphical dektop environment, without running any other command or application. Is "free -m" the rightest way to evaluate the amount of all the available ram memory left by a linux distribution? Which are the values to sum to evaluate all the available ram memory for the operating system?
