Sometimes powerful tools require effort to understand.
Lsof is absolutely something you should spend some real time grokking.
In regard to ps you can memorize a few commands until something truly weird comes up since you will probably use other more specialized snapshotting and tracing tools for anything somewhat difficult to troubleshoot.

- daurnimator 10y agoI find lsof and ps too hard to remember, so I usually just use regular linux utilities like cat/grep on the /proc file system. - grep bash /proc/*/status - readlink /proc/*/fd/* | grep /run
- atsaloli 10y agoThat's what I've been trying to tell people about Git, too. It's a powerful tool and it takes some effort to wrap your mind around it.
