<h3>How to check Linux process information (CPU usage, memory, user information, etc.)?</h3>
<p>You need to use the <code>ps</code> command combined with the <code>grep</code> command. In the example, we want to check the information on the nginx process :</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>ps aux <span class="p">|</span> grep nginx
</pre></div>
<p>It would return the output :</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>root 9976 0.0 0.0 12272 108 ? S&lt;s Aug12 0:00 nginx: master process /usr/bin/nginx -g pid /run/nginx.pid; daemon on; master_process on;
http 16780 0.0 0.0 12384 684 ? S&lt; Aug12 4:11 nginx: worker process
http 16781 0.0 0.0 12556 708 ? S&lt; Aug12 0:24 nginx: worker process
http 16782 0.0 0.1 12292 744 ? S&lt; Aug12 2:43 nginx: worker process
http 16783 0.0 0.1 12276 872 ? S&lt; Aug12 0:24 nginx: worker process
admin 17612 0.0 0.1 5120 864 pts/4 S+ 11:22 0:00 grep --color=auto nginx
</pre></div>
<p>The columns have the following order :
USER;PID;%CPU;%MEM;VSZ;RSS;TTY;STAT;START;TIME;COMMAND</p>
<ul>
<li>USER = user owning the process</li>
<li>PID = process ID of the process</li>
<li>%CPU = It is the CPU time used divided by the time the process has been running.</li>
<li>%MEM = ratio of the processs resident set size to the physical memory on the machine</li>
<li>VSZ = virtual memory usage of entire process (in KiB)</li>
<li>RSS = resident set size, the non-swapped physical memory that a task has used (in KiB)</li>
<li>TTY = controlling tty (terminal)</li>
<li>STAT = multi-character process state</li>
<li>START = starting time or date of the process</li>
<li>TIME = cumulative CPU time</li>
<li>COMMAND = command with all its arguments</li>
</ul>
<h3>Interactive display</h3>
<p>If you want an interactive display showing in real time the statistics of the running process you can use the <code>top</code> command. If <code>htop</code> is available on you system, use this instead.</p>
