One-liners: simple ASA log parsers

Sometimes you do not need a detailed log-analysis but several simple one-liners that you can adjust without too much thinking how it works, what you did last time, etc. The examples below are absolutely NOT optimal, but rather modular for easy line-editing.

What directory PHP is busy with

The file “cwd” under /proc/pid is a symbolic link to the “current working directory”:

for i in `ps -ef | awk ‘/php/{print $2}’`
do
ls -l /proc/${i}/cwd
done

The result is:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 alekz alekz 0 Янв 25 02:40 /proc/11544/cwd -> /home/alekz/public_html/blog/wp
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alekz alekz 0 Янв 25 02:40 /proc/11764/cwd -> /home/alekz/public_html/alekz.net
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alekz alekz 0 Янв 25 02:40 /proc/12574/cwd -> /home/alekz/public_html/alekz.net
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alekz alekz 0 Янв 25 02:40 /proc/13081/cwd -> /home/alekz/public_html/alekz.net
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alekz alekz 0 Янв 25 02:45 /proc/15053/cwd -> /home/alekz/public_html/blog/wp
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alekz alekz 0 Янв 25 02:45 /proc/15056/cwd -> /home/alekz/public_html/blog/wp
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alekz alekz 0 Янв 25 02:49 /proc/15696/cwd -> /home/alekz/public_html/blog/wp/wp-content/plugins/si-captcha-for-wordpress/captcha-secureimage

Of course, you can use any other process name instead of php.

And here’s a “dynamic” version:

dcpumon and dcpumonview

Found another cPanel application which you can safely turn off in order to safe some bytes and cycles.

By default dcpumon runs every 5 min to log CPU usage (“top” output) :

# crontab -l | fgrep cpu
*/5 * * * * /usr/local/cpanel/bin/dcpumon >/dev/null 2>&1
#

and stores the data into /var/log/dcpumon

You can view the report with dcpumonview command:

# /usr/local/cpanel/bin/dcpumonview
