The pstree
command is a command-line tool that shows the hierarchical relationship between processes on a Linux system. It displays the processes in a tree-like format, with the parent process at the top and child processes branching off beneath it.
Here are some examples of using the pstree
command:
pstree
– displays a tree of all processes running on the systempstree -p
– displays a tree of all processes running on the system and shows the process ID (PID) of each processpstree -u user1
– displays a tree of all processes running under the user “user1”pstree -g
– displays a tree of all processes and shows the process group ID (PGID) of each process
You can also use the pstree
command in conjunction with other command like grep
to filter the output of the command, for example:
pstree -u root | grep mysql
– displays all processes that belong to the user root and have the name ‘mysql’
Note that the pstree
command is not a standard command on all Linux systems, and it may not be installed by default. Some distributions package it as a separate package (like psmisc) which you can install via package manager.
