Per Process Memory Monitoring Tool

CentOS 3 Comments

Hi all,

I am looking for a tool which let me monitor memory consumption per process on CentOS 5/6. The tool should be able to save its history so I could see what amount of memory was consumed yesterday/week ago/etc by each process. Can you recommend anything like that ?

Best regards P.

  • You can use top in batch mode, -a sorts by memory, -d 20 updates every
    20 seconds. adjust to your needs.

    top -b -a -d 20 >> top.txt

    If you are going to disconnect from the terminal, use nohup before top:

    nohup top -b -a -d 20 >> top.txt

  • You also need to append & to the command.
