Hi,
I'm using an old computer with Fedora XFCE. A few days ago I found this
tutorial about "HOWTO: Set maximum CPU consumption in percentage by any process". That tutorial is for Ubuntu. I made few changes to use in Fedora.
Code:
su -
yum -y install cpulimit gawk gedit
Code:
su -
gedit /usr/bin/cpulimit_daemon.sh
And save bellow daemon script
Code:
#!/bin/bash
# ==============================================================
# CPU limit daemon - set PID's max. percentage CPU consumptions
# ==============================================================
# Variables
CPU_LIMIT=20 # Maximum percentage CPU consumption by each PID
DAEMON_INTERVAL=3 # Daemon check interval in seconds
BLACK_PROCESSES_LIST= # Limit only processes defined in this variable. If variable is empty (default) all violating processes are limited.
WHITE_PROCESSES_LIST= # Limit all processes except processes defined in this variable. If variable is empty (default) all violating processes are limited.
# Check if one of the variables BLACK_PROCESSES_LIST or WHITE_PROCESSES_LIST is defined.
if [[ -n "$BLACK_PROCESSES_LIST" && -n "$WHITE_PROCESSES_LIST" ]] ; then # If both variables are defined then error is produced.
echo "At least one or both of the variables BLACK_PROCESSES_LIST or WHITE_PROCESSES_LIST must be empty."
exit 1
elif [[ -n "$BLACK_PROCESSES_LIST" ]] ; then # If this variable is non-empty then set NEW_PIDS_COMMAND variable to bellow command
NEW_PIDS_COMMAND="top -b -n1 -c | grep -E '$BLACK_PROCESSES_LIST' | gawk '\$9>CPU_LIMIT {print \$1}' CPU_LIMIT=$CPU_LIMIT"
elif [[ -n "$WHITE_PROCESSES_LIST" ]] ; then # If this variable is non-empty then set NEW_PIDS_COMMAND variable to bellow command
NEW_PIDS_COMMAND="top -b -n1 -c | gawk 'NR>6' | grep -E -v '$WHITE_PROCESSES_LIST' | gawk '\$9>CPU_LIMIT {print \$1}' CPU_LIMIT=$CPU_LIMIT"
else
NEW_PIDS_COMMAND="top -b -n1 -c | gawk 'NR>6 && \$9>CPU_LIMIT {print \$1}' CPU_LIMIT=$CPU_LIMIT"
fi
# Search and limit violating PIDs
while sleep $DAEMON_INTERVAL
do
NEW_PIDS=$(eval "$NEW_PIDS_COMMAND") # Violating PIDs
LIMITED_PIDS=$(ps -eo args | gawk '$1=="cpulimit" {print $3}') # Already limited PIDs
QUEUE_PIDS=$(comm -23 <(echo "$NEW_PIDS" | sort -u) <(echo "$LIMITED_PIDS" | sort -u) | grep -v '^$') # PIDs in queue
for i in $QUEUE_PIDS
do
cpulimit -p $i -l $CPU_LIMIT -z & # Limit new violating processes
done
done
Code:
su -
chmod 755 /usr/bin/cpulimit_daemon.sh
Code:
su -
gedit /etc/init.d/cpulimit
And save bellow script
Code:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Script to start CPU limit daemon
#
# chkconfig: 2345 99 99
#
# description: Starts cpulimit processes for all

exit 0
Code:
su -
chown root:root /etc/init.d/cpulimit
Code:
su -
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/cpulimit
Code:
su -
chkconfig --add cpulimit
However, When I check the status
Code:
su -
service cpulimit status
*cpulimit daemon is running
In other hand, in services shows that "This unit has finished."
Code:
su -
system-config-services
My question is, Is this unit should keep running? If yes, How can I change it to the unit is running (What's chkconfig look like)?
Thanks in advance.
