Monitoring Server Jobs, Roles, and Performance via Command Line
Hey guys, I have an up and coming interview (tomorrow) and during the discussion via phone I was asked if I was familiar with "monitoring jobs in Linux/UNIX using the command line." Now, I currently work in the MS world and I am underneath the NOC hear at my company so I have had no reason to do keep up to date on this subject. I used to be fluent with Debian Linux, but I am quite rusty.
I look to you guys for a bit of help, if you don't mind.
Can you point me to a tutorial, or thread here (I did search), on what I am looking for?
Thanks for the help!
Steve

Hi All
I am looking for a script that would collect statistics in a summarised format.
CPU, Memory,Swap, Wait queue, Run queue and disk activity.
Something that would allow me to profile the environment based on a 1 line output that I could run every 15 min.
Thx
