There's good examples of how to set up bbext scripts to run on each of
your clients, but the jist of it is that you get your script to work, put it in
the $BBHOME/ext directory on each client machine, add the script name to the
bb-exttab on the clients, then restart the clients.
The
following snippet should get you started on the 'guts' of your script to
determine if your processes are out of control
top -d
1 -h -u -f /tmp/top.tmp
awk
'$13~/BAD_PROCESS_NAME/ {print $12}' /tmp/top.tmp
this
will print out the percentage of cpu time used by a process named
BAD_PROCESS_NAME.
My
HP/UX skills are kind of rusty, but if you have any other questions, ask
away.
Good
evening,
I've been trying to find a way to
trace runaway system processes on an HP-UX 11.11 host for quite awhile, and
the nearest I could find on the archives was a script someone had written back
in '99 that wouldn't quite work right (even with some tweaking)...mainly due to
problems with the ps command syntax on whatever OS the script was built to run
on. For reference: http://support.bb4.com/archive/199910/msg00085.html
Essentially, I have two processes
on two separate HP-UX boxes that seem to like to start chewing up a ton of CPU
time. Generally, I use 'top' to check if this condition occurs, and when
it does, they will show at the very top of the list - usually with an
extremely high TIME, %WCPU and %CPU value. I want to be able to
determine if one of these processes exists, either by checking the value of
the TIME and sending RED to BB if it's exceeded a certain length, or even
check %CPU and send RED if it's over a set CPU
percentage.
Of course, I haven't dealt with
the script extensions within BB very much, so I definitely will need some help
trying to make this work with my existing BB installation on each host.
Unfortunately, the two hosts are reporting to a Windows XP box that serves as
the BBPAGER/BBNET/BBDISPLAY host.
Any help you can provide will
surely go a long way. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Jeff
