Check Linux server configuration !!

Rahul Nayak — Tue, 06 May 2014 01:10:57 -0500

Bioinformatician uses servers for computational analysis. Sometime we need to check the server details before running our programs or tools. Here I am showing some basic commands using them you can gather the system/server information.

To check what version of Operating System is installed on the server you can use the following commands:-
=================================================================
1.cat /etc/issue
[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/issue
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Tikanga)
Kernel \r on an \m

2.cat /etc/redhat-release
[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Tikanga)

3.lsb_release -a
[root@localhost ~]# lsb_release -a
LSB Version:    :core-3.1-ia32:core-3.1-noarch:graphics-3.1-ia32:graphics-3.1-noarch
Distributor ID: RedHatEnterpriseServer
Description:    Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Tikanga)
Release:        5.5
Codename:       Tikanga

To check whether the operating system is 32 or 64bit:-
================================
# uname -i
[root@localhost ~]# uname -i
i386
(i386 represents that server is having 32bit operating system)

[root@localhost ~]# uname -i
x86_64
(x86_64 represents that server is having 64bit operating system)

To see the processor/CPU information:-
=============================
# cat /proc/cpuinfo
[root@localhost ~] cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor       : 0
vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
cpu family      : 6
model           : 15
model name      : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU            5130 @ 2.00GHz
stepping        : 6
cpu MHz         : 1995.087
cache size      : 4096 KB
physical id     : 0
siblings        : 2
core id         : 0
cpu cores       : 2
apicid          : 0
fdiv_bug        : no
hlt_bug         : no
f00f_bug        : no
coma_bug        : no
fpu             : yes
fpu_exception   : yes
cpuid level     : 10
wp              : yes
flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe nx lm constant_tsc pni monitor ds_cpl vmx tm2 ssse3 cx16 xtpr lahf_lm
bogomips        : 3990.17
(Here processor number 0 indicates that the system is having one process(processor number starts with zero))

To check memory information:-
===========================
# free -m
[root@localhost ~]# free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:          5066       3513       1552          0        612       2319

To check the model and serial name of the server:-
=======================================
[root@localhost ~]# dmidecode | egrep -i "product name|Serial number"
Product Name: PowerEdge R710
Serial Number: AB8CDE1


To check the host name:-
=====================
[root@localhost ~]# uname -n
localhost

[root@localhost ~]# hostname
localhost

To check the kernel version:-
========================
[root@localhost ~]# uname -r
2.6.18-238.9.1.el5PAE

How to set up SSH on Ubuntu 18.04

AnHo — Thu, 22 Nov 2018 10:12:00 -0600

SSH, also known as Secure Shell or Secure Socket Shell, is a network protocol that gives users, particularly system administrators, a secure way to access a computer over an unsecured network. SSH also refers to the suite of utilities that implement the SSH protocol.

Here are the commands used to connect by Secure SHell:

On the server side

sudo apt-get install ssh
sudo apt-get install openssh-server
sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config
Uncomment port 22
Uncomment HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
Uncomment AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys .ssh/authorized_keys2
Set pubkey authentication to "yes"

sudo systemctl restart sshd.service # or sudo /etc/init.d/ssh reload

On the client side:
in ~/.ssh

ssh-keygen -t rsa # set passphrase or not
ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa user@100.100.10.100

--> write "yes" then password in

ssh user@100.100.10.100

--> write password --> you should be in

--> in /home/user/.ssh/config type:
Host WhateverName
HostName 100.100.10.100
User username
ForwardX11 yes
ForwardAgent yes
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa

--> you should now be able to connect with :

ssh WhateverName

htop explained

Jit — Wed, 06 Jul 2022 01:28:09 -0500

For the longest time I did not know what everything meant in htop.

I thought that load average 1.0 on my two core machine means that the CPU usage is at 50%. That's not quite right. And also, why does it say 1.0?

I decided to look everything up and document it here.
