Hi,
I have a directory of flow-captured flows for a whole month(Dec2006) and I'm
trying to do a
flow-cat "flows_dir" | flowstat -f8 -S2 > topdestination
I left it in background and it's been running for 30 hours now.
Doing a "top" shows flow-stat being on top of the list from time to time
consuming around 60% of memory on a debian system. Noticeably, flow-cat doesn't
appear in "top" (perhaps it's done with its job)
however ps shows them both.
#ps -aux |grep flow
root 22604 0.9 0.0 6448 284 ? S Jan09 16:31 flow-cat
/var/netflow/ft/all/dec2006/
root 22605 7.0 52.3 875204 474452 ? D Jan09 123:07 flow-stat -f8 -S2
Also lsof
# lsof |grep flow-cat
flow-cat 22604 root cwd DIR 8,3 224 36536
flow-cat 22604 root rtd DIR 8,4 584 2 /

Above shows flow-cat seems to have stopped processing at Dec 21, don't know why.

As you can see above, I have redirected the output to "topdestinatioip"
But up to now, the file is still empty.
Do you know am I going to find out the progress of what I'm doing?
I'm just afraid that the program might have stopped running and I am waiting
for nothing now.
Thanks
