Linux系统内存机制:在linux中有这么一种思想,内存不用白不用,因此它尽可能的cache和buffer一些数据,以方便下次使用。但实际上这些内存也是可以立刻拿来使用的。所以 空闲内存=free+buffers+cached

check_mem.sh 这个监控脚本是网上找来的.他的取的内存值是free -m 出来的Mem: total userd free的三个值. 按照上面的说法.这样的监控方式不对.所以我修改了下这个脚本.很简单.主要是修改了这两个值:

# Total memory used

used=`free -m | head -3 |tail -1 |awk '{print $3}'`

# Calc total minus used

free=`free -m | head -3 |tail -1 |awk '{print $4}'`

check_mem.sh

#!/bin/bash

USAGE="`basename $0` [-w|--warning]<percent free> [-c|--critical]<percent free>"

THRESHOLD_USAGE="WARNING threshold must be greater than CRITICAL: `basename $0` $*"

calc=/tmp/memcalc

percent_free=/tmp/mempercent

critical=""

warning=""

STATE_OK=0

STATE_WARNING=1

STATE_CRITICAL=2

STATE_UNKNOWN=3

# print usage

if [[ $# -lt 4 ]]

then

        echo ""

        echo "Wrong Syntax: `basename $0` $*"

        echo ""

        echo "Usage: $USAGE"

        echo ""

        exit 0

fi

# read input

  do

        case "$1" in

               shift

               critical=$1

        shift

  done

then

        echo ""
