[Vserver] vtop?
I know we have the vps process which can essentially show a ps output of all things running within vservers from the host, but has anyone ever looked into patching the program top, or writing a new version which will act like top on the host, showing the UIDs and run states of all processes in the vservers continuously? I ask, because we use vservers in a fairly hostile environment, and sometimes we get rogue processes which are hogging all of the CPU (for example) - top shows the machine load is up but doesn't show which vserver the rogue process is in - instead you need to use vps, or log into each vserver and run top there to find it. Having one version on top on the host to monitor all processes in the vservers would be great! Are there any plans? (Or indeed has someone already done it and I don't know?)

As far as I know vtop has been part of the tools for quite a long time :) Tom Hello all That's right but vtop is (at least in my 0.30.208.something) just a shell wrapper around top (something to the effect of chcontext --xid=1 /usr/bin/top) so the display does not include vserver name/context. I might be patching top to implement vserver support soon, though :) Grzegorz Nosek ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
