This document discusses modifying process execution priorities in Linux. It covers using the nice command to change the niceness of new processes, and the renice command to change the niceness of running processes. Niceness values range from -20 to 19, with lower values indicating higher priority. The ps and top commands can be used to view process niceness and system resource usage. Allowed changes to the document include copying and distributing it verbatim.

OSMC 2010 | NSClient++ - what's new? And what's coming! by Michael MedinNETWAYS
A simple yet powerful and secure monitoring daemon for Windows operating systems, this is what a NSClient++ aims to be. It is built for Nagios, but nothing in the daemon is actually Nagios specific and with little or no change NSClient++ could be also integrated into any monitoring software that supports running user tools for polling. In this presentation we are going to look at the new features of NSClient++ 0.3.x. But perhaps more importantly looking at what’s coming in the 0.4.x version!

State of ICS and IoT Cyber Threat Landscape Report 2024 previewPrayukth K V
The IoT and OT threat landscape report has been prepared by the Threat Research Team at Sectrio using data from Sectrio, cyber threat intelligence farming facilities spread across over 85 cities around the world. In addition, Sectrio also runs AI-based advanced threat and payload engagement facilities that serve as sinks to attract and engage sophisticated threat actors, and newer malware including new variants and latent threats that are at an earlier stage of development.
The latest edition of the OT/ICS and IoT security Threat Landscape Report 2024 also covers:
State of global ICS asset and network exposure
Sectoral targets and attacks as well as the cost of ransom
Global APT activity, AI usage, actor and tactic profiles, and implications
Rise in volumes of AI-powered cyberattacks
Major cyber events in 2024
Malware and malicious payload trends

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
DevOps and Testing slides at DASA ConnectKari Kakkonen
My and Rik Marselis slides at 30.5.2024 DASA Connect conference. We discuss about what is testing, then what is agile testing and finally what is Testing in DevOps. Finally we had lovely workshop with the participants trying to find out different ways to think about quality and testing in different parts of the DevOps infinity loop.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
The Art of the Pitch: WordPress Relationships and SalesLaura Byrne
Clients don’t know what they don’t know. What web solutions are right for them? How does WordPress come into the picture? How do you make sure you understand scope and timeline? What do you do if sometime changes?
All these questions and more will be explored as we talk about matching clients’ needs with what your agency offers without pulling teeth or pulling your hair out. Practical tips, and strategies for successful relationship building that leads to closing the deal.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Modify process execution priorities
In Linux kernel, the scheduler is responsible for deciding which process is going to occupy the
CPU's attention for the next millisecond.
One of the factors for making this decision is the priority or niceness of the process.
Process priority
3
1.Using nice you can change the niceness of new processes.
2.Using renice you can change execution priorities of running processes.
• Nice directly maps to a kernel call of the same name.
• Used to invoke a utility or shell script with a particular priority, giving the process more/less CPU time
than other processes.
• A niceness of −20 is the highest priority and 19 or 20 is the lowest priority.
• The default niceness for processes is inherited from its parent process, usually 0.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nice_%28Unix%29#Etymology

Modify process execution priorities
nice - To change the priority of a process that is started
You make it behave more nicely so it does not monopolize the CPU
Using nice
4
Niceness values range from: -20 (not at all nice, very important) to +19 (20) (very nice).
-n switch specifies just how nice the process should be
• nice -n 15 process – start the process with a niceness of 15
• nice -15 process – start the process with a niceness of 15
• nice -n -15 process – start the process with a niceness of 15 (higher priority)
"niceness" originates from the idea that a process with a higher niceness value is "nicer" to other
processes in the system.
This is why the nice number is usually called niceness: a job with a high niceness is very kind to the users
of the system (it runs at low priority), while a job with little niceness hogs the CPU.
The niceness of a process is inherited by the processes it creates.
If the login sequence for a user sets the niceness of that user's processes, all processes run by the user are also nice.

Modify process execution priorities
renice - used to set the priority of processes that are already running
Using renice
5
renice can zap specific processes or the processes owned by a user or a group.
• renice +1 -p 14292 – make process 14292 just a little nicer
• renice +2 -u jack – make all of Jack's processes two notches nicer.
• renice +3 -g users – make the processes whose group is “users” three notches nicer.
1.Users can only increase the niceness of their own processes.
2.Root can increase or decrease the niceness of any process.
3.Processes with positive niceness get low priority, and often a process with niceness 19 or
20 only runs when nothing else in the system wants to.
4.Starting a process with nice(19) will make it go really slow

Modify process execution priorities
ps (process status) reports niceness of processes in the column STAT
If process has any degree of niceness, the status column includes N.
ps and niceness

ps can be convinced to display the niceness of each process
– but you wouldn't want to do this. (It's probably not in exam).
