I have a semi-related question.For someone whose main job is not maintaining or running full linux servers but would like information about processes and their RAM/CPU..etc. What would be a good tool that is easy to parse with good defaults?
- candiddevmike 2y agoNode exporter is a good start, or you could look at Netdata
- edoceo 2y agoThe tool btop was suggested in the other thread to replace atop and htop.
- 0manrho 2y agoSeconding btop++, been running it as my main top for a few years now, and switched from htop. I didn't have a single complaint about htop, did what it said on the tin and did it well in my experience, but personally I prefer btop's ux/ui.
- calvinmorrison 2y agohtop is a decent curses processes manager that's a few miles better than top
- worthless-trash 2y agoIf you are writing software to parse it, dont use third party tooling. Read the kernel outputs directly (/proc/ /sys etc). While they do have no guarantee not to change, if they do change any tool you are parsing will also be broken.
- Zardoz84 2y agoI recommend nmon
- ezekiel68 2y agoI recommend.. atop, now that it has been updated to address this issue.
