CYBweek3 DQ.docx CYB/225: Linux Fundamentals Week One DQ Wk 3 Discussion - Linux Processes Discuss uses of the ps command and why the output of ps -ef is critical from the standpoint of a Linux server administrator. The ps command produces a list of the currently running processes on your computer. The ps command is commonly used in conjunction with the grep command. On its own, the ps command shows the running processes by the user running it . The output will show rows of data containing the following information PID, TTY, Time, and Command. The PID is the process ID which identifies the running process. The TTY is the terminal type. On its own, the ps command is quite limited. You probably want to see all the running processes. To view all the running processes use these commands ps -A and ps -e to show all of the processes except for session leaders run ps -d. The -e, shows all the processes and the f or -f shows full details User ID, PID, PPID, C, STime, TTY, Time, Command. The User ID is the person who ran the command. The PID is the process ID of the command the command. The PPID is the parent process that kicked off the command. The C column shows the number of children a process has. The STime is the start time for the process. The TTY is the terminal, the time is the amount of time it took to run and command is the command that was run. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . .. .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . .
