Monitoring and maintaining processes
The system software of the device is a full-featured, modular, and scalable network operating system
based on the Linux kernel. The system software features run the following types of independent
processes:
•
User process —Runs in user space. Most system software features run user processes. Each
process runs in an independent space so the failure of a process does not affect other
processes. The system automatically monitors user processes. The system supports
preemptive multithreading. A process can run multiple threads to support multiple activities.
Whether a process supports multithreading depends on the software implementation.
•
Kernel thread —Runs in kernel space. A kernel thread executes kernel code. It has a higher
security level than a user process. If a kernel thread fails, the system breaks down. You can
monitor the running status of kernel threads.
Displaying and maintaining processes
Commands described in this section apply to both user processes and kernel threads. You can
execute these commands in any view.
The system identifies a process that consumes excessive memory or CPU resources as an anomaly
source.
(In standalone mode.) To display and maintain processes:
Task Command
Display memory usage.
display memory
[
slot
slot-number [
cpu
cpu-number ] ]
Display process state
information.
display process [ all | job job-id | name process-name ] [ slot
slot-number [ cpu cpu-number ] ]
Display CPU usage for all
processes.
display process cpu [ slot slot-number [ cpu cpu-number ] ]
Monitor process running state.
monitor process [ dumbtty ] [ iteration number ] [ slot slot-number
[ cpu cpu-number ] ]
Monitor thread running state.
monitor thread [ dumbtty ] [ iteration number ] [ slot slot-number
[ cpu cpu-number ] ]
For more information about the display memory [ slot slot-number ] command, see Fundamentals
Command Reference .
(In IRF mode.) To display and maintain processes:
Task Command
Display memory usage.
display memory [ chassis chassis-number slot slot-number [ cpu

Display process state
information. display process [ all | job job-id | name process-name ] [ chassis
chassis-number slot slot-number [ cpu cpu-number ] ]
Display CPU usage for all
processes. display process cpu [ chassis chassis-number slot slot-number [ cpu
