wmbubble - system load monitor
SYNOPSIS
wmbubble [options] [program1] [program2]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the wmbubble command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the
original program does not have a manual page.
wmbubble is a dockapp-style CPU, memory, swap and load average monitor. Based on the GNOME BubbleMon applet, this program has been consid-
erably improved.
The higher the water level, the more memory is in use. The more profuse the bubbles, the higher the CPU usage. There is also a real-time
CPU percentage display.
When the mouse is moved into the window, the display will change to show the load history, or, if the right shift is held, the current mem-
ory usage. If you press the right mouse button, the window will freeze in that state. You can unfreeze the display by pressing the right
mouse button again.
program1 and program2 are the programs to spawn when either the left or middle mouse button is pressed, respectively.
OPTIONS -d disable swimming duck
-u disable upside-down duck
-c disable CPU meter
-m disable memory screen
-p use alternative color scheme in memory info screen
-k display memory and swap statistics in megabytes
-h display help

bubblefishymon - system load meter with ducks and fish
SYNOPSIS
bubblefishymon [options] [program] [program]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the bubblefishymon command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the origi-
nal program does not have a manual page.
bubblefishymon is a dockapp-style system monitor for CPU, memory, swap, load average and network traffic. Based on wmfishtime(1) and bub-
blemon, this program has been considerably improved over the parent code.
The higher the water level, the more memory is in use. The more profuse the bubbles, the higher the CPU usage. Fish represent network
traffic direction and speed.
When the mouse is moved into the window, the display will change to chow the load history, or, if the right Shift key is held, the current
memory usage. If you press the right mouse button, the window will freeze in that state until you move the mouse out then back into the
window.
program1 and program2 are the programs to spawn when either the left or middle mouse buttons are pressed, respectively.
OPTIONS -d disable swimming duck.
-u disable upside-down duck.
-f disable fish.
-c disable CPU meter.
-m disable memory screen.
-p use alternate colour scheme in memory info screen.
-k display memory and swap statistics in megabytes.
-n[iface]
fish represents network traffic [on <iface>].
-t draw the clock too.
-h display help.

I'm trying to monitor the CPU usage of a process and output that value to a file or variable. I know topas or nmon can tell me this in interactive mode but what I need is topas-looking output that allows me to write to a file after a discrete interval. Unlike nmon data collection to a file on top... (5 Replies)
If somebody knows there are some tools can show how many CPU, memory useage on AIX and can automatically send email?
Such as when setup if CPU is used over 80%, send alert by email automatically.
Maybe BMC has this tool? (6 Replies)
I've been trying to write a monitor program that gets various values on the processes running and makes reports. One of the values that I wanted to monitor was swap usage, so that we can ensure that our swap space doesn't fill up, but I can't seem to get this number (on a per-process basis) from... (7 Replies)

Hi all,
When you monitor the CPU and memory usage, how often do you do it ? Do it too often or too rarely will both cause the problem. So does anyone have hand-on experience ?
And for my case, the requirement says that when CPU usage is above X% or memory usage is above Y%, I should reject... (5 Replies)

Hello
Is there a way to get CPU usage on UNIX environments (SunOS, Linux, HP-UX, AIX) without executing any commands?
The reason I ask is because I am asked to research any potential methods to monitor performance on UNIX environments but not use any commands because they want to 'poll'... (5 Replies)
Hi all,
I am currently having trouble to get nmon to print me the actual CPU usage for an interval for a process.
According to the manual, something like
# time nmon -t -C cron -s 5 -c 2 -F outfile
real 0m0.98s
user 0m0.03s
sys 0m0.04s
should print out at least the process... (15 Replies)

Any pointers?
