Aide Memoire - Commands for Linux, WebSphere Application Server and IBM HTTP Server
   

I could print this stuff out, but then I'd have to carry paper - perhaps I should create an ePub with this stuff in ......

All of these came from this rather excellent blog: -


or, more specifically, this post.

Find the process that uses most CPU

ps -eo pcpu,pid,user,args | sort -k 1 -r | head -2

Find the last 10 process that use the most CPU

ps -eo pcpu,pid,user,args | sort -k 1 -r | head -10

Find cpu usage

mpstat -P ALL

Display the size of the current directory, plus all subdirectories

du -ch | grep total

Domain Information Groper (DIG) - look at DNS etc.

dig <hostname or IP address>

Get details of a network adapter

 /usr/sbin/ethtool eth0

Find occurrences of strings in files AND report file names

find . -name '*.xml' -print | xargs grep 'hostName' /dev/null

Find files over a certain size e.g. 10K

find / -xdev -size +1024 -exec ls -al {} ; | sort -r -k 5

Find and tar files on the fly

find /opt/IBM/WebSphere/PortalServer/log -name 'System*.log'| xargs tar -rvf System_logs.tar

/opt/IBM/WebSphere/wp_profile/bin/wsadmin.sh -lang jython | tee wsadmin.log

Find files touched in, say, the past 20 minutes

find * -mmin -20

Run a command on a loop

watch -d=10 -n 1 "netstat -a"

Show expiry of WAS SSL key and trust stores ( assuming that password is still WebAS )

What is important when monitoring IBM Business Process Manager at the infrastructure level?
Mon, May 13th 2013 8:45a   Dave Hay
Again, this popped up in my Twitter stream of consciousness, thanks to @IBM_BPM : - In my customer engagements, I am often asked the following questions: • What metrics should we use to monitor the infrastructure for our IBM Business Process Manager environment? • What key metrics should I always look at to prevent the environment from becoming unavailable? • Which actions should be taken in case the metric threshold is exceeded or when receiving an alert by running out of service?

Using the ITCAM for Applications BPM monitoring solution to identify slow Business Process Definitions

Top 6 mistakes in IBM Business Process Manager installations
Tue, May 7th 2013 7:09a   Dave Hay
Let's play a game of word association. What subject comes to mind with the words "engaging" and "terrifying"? Whatever you are thinking, I suspect it wasn't IT security. Yet those very words describe J Keith Wood and Jens Engelke's new IBM Redbooks publication. In it, they share their experiences of working with IBM customers around the world on securing IBM Business Process Manager solutions. Security pitfalls are everywhere and the stakes could not be higher. This blog post is part of [read] Keywords: ibm community database security server

Wed, May 1st 2013 4:07a   Dave Hay
As part of an exercise to help a colleague, who was trying to work out how to enable verbose GC logging within the WAS Liberty Profile, I've just installed Liberty and the WAS Developer Tools onto my Mac. I used this excellent blog post: - How to install WebSphere 8.5 Liberty profile on Mac as inspiration, as well as an earlier blog post of mine: - WebSphere Application Server 8.5 Developer Tools for Eclipse and WebSphere Application Server 8.5 Liberty Profile Developer Tools I downloaded Eclip [read] Keywords: ibm application applications community eclipse java mac profile properties server vm websphere

WebSphere Application Server, the Service Integration Bus, CWSIS1501E and ORA-28000: the account is locked
Fri, Apr 26th 2013 4:03a   Dave Hay
I was trying to work out why my two Service Integration (SI) buses were failing to start up. My back-end database is Oracle 11g R2, with which I'm slowly becoming familiar.

Slow but steady success with Oracle 11g R2
Thu, Apr 25th 2013 7:05a   Dave Hay
I'm on my second installation of Oracle 11g R2, having previously installed it using the GUI. This time around I've used a response file to install the product ( see below )via the command: - ./runInstaller -silent -responseFile response/db_install.rsp and all seems OK so far. I did hit a few challenges: - (i) I don't appear to have the oracle_env.sh script anywhere on my box, meaning that the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID aren't set up.
