Tutorial
So many people asking how to keep track on the OS memory usage by
process, as you know a bit about Physical Memory, Virtual Memory (VSZ),
Resident Set Size (RSS), Shared Memory, Paging Memory…etc, counting RSS
to determine memory usage is very common way and easier to understand
for dummies like me, although it’s not a precise figure while you’re
ignoring shared memory, fs cache..etc.
But anyway this tutorial is starting point to help you monitor the
process RSS usage and keep tracking the usage that allows to identify
peak/min.
Alright, you need to create one database or table, and one script and one cron job.
Step 1 – Create a database for storing stat data
|
CREATE DATABASE sysstat DEFAULT CHARACTER SET latin1;
GRANT INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, SELECT on sysstat.* to sysstat@ 'localhost' identified by 'passw0rd' ;
USE sysstat;
CREATE TABLE 'memory' ( 'id' int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, 'date' datetime NOT NULL, 'memory' int(20) NOT NULL, 'process' varchar(300) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY ( 'id' )) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=21794 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
|
Step 2 – Script
Usage:
To show all memory usage by process
|
[root@vm1 sbin]

2011-05-01 01:55:39 429720 /usr/bin/php-cgi
|
To record into database
To retrieve the usage report
|
. /memory_stat .sh report {process} { date - optional}
|
|
[root@vm1 sbin]

To housekeep the database
|
. /memory_stat .sh housekeep
|
memory_stat.sh
|
#!/bin/bash
process=` ps aux| awk '{print $11}' | sort | uniq | grep - v -e grep -e awk -e ps -e sort -e uniq `
date =` date +%Y-%m-%d\ %H:%M:%S`
database= "sysstat"
dbuser= "sysstat"
password= "passw0rd"
housekeepday= "30"
usage(){
for PS in $process; do
echo "$date `ps aux | grep -- $PS |grep -v grep | awk '{sum +=$6}; END {print sum}'` $PS"
done
}
record() {
usage > /tmp/usage .log
mysql -u$dbuser -p$password <<EOF
use $database;
` while read date time memory process;
do
echo "insert into memory (date,memory,process) values ('$date $time','$memory','$process');"
done < /tmp/usage .log
`
EOF
rm -f /tmp/usage .log
}
housekeep() {
mysql -u$dbuser -p$password <<EOF
use $database;
delete from memory where date < CURRENT_DATE - $housekeepday;
EOF
}
report() {
if [ x$1 = "x" ]; then
echo "Usage: $0 [process]"
exit
fi
process=$1
datetime_arg= "AND date like '$2%'"
echo "$process usage report on `hostname`"
mysql -u$dbuser -p$password <<EOF
use $database;
`
echo "select date, memory from memory where process like '%$1%' $datetime_arg order by date" ;
`
EOF
}
case $1 in
usage)
usage | sort -k 3n
;;
housekeep)
housekeep
;;
record)
record
;;
report)
report $2 $3
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $1 (usage|record|housekeep|report [process] [date])"
;;
esac
|
Step 3 – Cron Job
|
0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * /usr/local/sbin/memory_stat .sh record
|
That’s it
At least, you may tell a bit more about which process is huger one and then you’ll able to narrow down for investigation.
