Process Information
Information Description
PID Process Identification Number, a unique number identifying the process
PPID Parent PID, the PID of the parent process (like … in the file hierarchy)
UID The user running the process
TTY The terminal that the process's stdin and stdout are connected to
S The status of the process: S=Sleeping, R=Running, T=Stopped, Z=Zombie
PRI Process priority
SZ Process size
CMD The name of the process (the command being run)
C The CPU utilization of the process
WCHAN Waiting channel (name of kernel function in which the process is sleeping)
F Flags (1=forked but didn't exit, 4=used superuser privileges)
TIME Cumulative CPU time
NI Nice value
Just a few of types of information kept on a process.
Use man ps to see a lot more.

x option shows full commands being run and states (most are asleep).
I'm using two Putty sessions, in one session I have the man page open for ps, the other I'm issuing ps commands 5

Signals
CIS 191 - Lesson 12
Signals are asynchronous messages sent to processes
They can result in one of three courses of action:1. be ignored, 2. default action (die) 3. execute some predefined function.
Signals are sent:• Using the kill command: $ kill -# PID
• Where # is the signal number and PID is the process id.• if no number is specified, SIGTERM is sent.
• Using special keystrokes • limited to just a few signals
Use kill –l to see all signals

System Monitoringvmstat
Procs r: The number of processes waiting for run time. b: The number of processes in uninterruptible sleep.
Memory swpd: the amount of virtual memory used. free: the amount of idle memory. buff: the amount of memory used as buffers. cache: the amount of memory used as cache. inact: the amount of inactive memory. (-a option) active: the amount of active memory. (-a option)
Swap si: Amount of memory swapped in from disk (/s). so: Amount of memory swapped to disk (/s).
IO bi: Blocks received from a block device (blocks/s). bo: Blocks sent to a block device (blocks/s).
System in: The number of interrupts per second, including the clock. cs: The number of context switches per second.
CPU These are percentages of total CPU time. us: Time spent running non-kernel code. (user time, including nice time) sy: Time spent running kernel code. (system time) id: Time spent idle. Prior to Linux 2.5.41, this includes IO-wait time. wa: Time spent waiting for IO. Prior to Linux 2.5.41, included in idle. st: Time stolen from a virtual machine. Prior to Linux 2.6.11, unknown.

27
CIS 191 - Lesson 12
at command
So that the multiprocessing CPU on a UNIX system does not get overloaded, some processes need to be run during low peak hours such as early in the morning or later in the day.
The at command is for this purpose.
The at command reads its stdin for a list of commands to run, and begins running them at the time of day specified as the first argument:
$ at 10:30pm < batch_file
$ at 11:59pmat> cat files.out bigshell > lab08at> cp lab08 /home/rsimms/cis90/$LOGNAME at> Ctrl-D$ Note: the Ctrl-d must be entered as the first character on the last line.
Use the at command to schedule a command or script to run in the future
28
CIS 191 - Lesson 12
Load Balancing
Several ways to specify a future time to run
This job makes a backup of myscript and sends an email when finished
Use the atq command to show queued jobs
29
CIS 191 - Lesson 12
Load Balancing
The atrm command is used to remove jobs from the queue
The jobs command lists processes running or suspended in the background.
The atq command lists jobs queued to run in the futures that were scheduled by at command

cron
31
CIS 191 - Lesson 12
System MonitoringScheduling Batch (cron) Jobs
• cron - Scheduling Program that executes tasks at a given time
• crontab - a program that submits tasks to the cron daemon
‒ crontab filename - registers your cron file ‒ crontab -l - displays your current cron file ‒ crontab -r - removes your current cron file ‒ crontab -u user - sets a cron job for another
user • Crontab service can be denied or
allowed on a per/user basis • crond cron daemon examines crontab
files and at command files. 32
CIS 191 - Lesson 12
cron
crond's parent is init
crond daemon lives in /usr/sbin
service command can be used to stop and start (Red Hat family)
checkcfg command can be used to configure startup by run level
33
CIS 191 - Lesson 12
System MonitoringScheduling Batch (cron) Jobs
Two cron options:• "System" cron jobs
• Uses /etc/crontab (has additional user field)• No need to edit cron files just drop new jobs in:
• /etc/cron.daily/• /etc/cron.weekly/• /etc/cron.monthly/
• Fortified with anacron
• "User" cron jobs• Uses cron files kept in /var/spool/cron• Use crontab commands to create, view, and remove cron files• One cron file per user (multiple entries for multiple jobs)
34

Note: 0anacron is the first job to run in each cron directory. anacron complements cron by handling jobs that were scheduled to run when the system was down.

You can use /etc/cron.allow and /etc/cron.deny to manage as necessary. Add users, one per line.

Create a cron file as root to perform a backup of the /home file system. Do a full level 0 backup, followed by 3 level 1 backups, followed by 3 level 2 backups.
