Introduction<\/h2>\n

Files and folders in Linux are accessed by processes of a particular identity. You must know the id of the specific process if you want to perform any action on that process.<\/p>\n

It is among the most important tasks of Linux systems administrators. It is involved in a number of activities under supervision, signaling processes, and setting the priorities of processes on the system.<\/p>\n

Now we’re gonna teach you to find processes by using the fuser command in Linux.<\/p>\n

The syntax of the fuser command<\/h2>\n

The popular syntax:<\/p>\n

$ fuser [options] [file|socket]<\/pre>\n
$ fuser [options] -SIGNAL [file|socket]<\/pre>\n
$ fuser -l<\/pre>\n
Or you can look up usage with the command:<\/p>\n
$ fuser<\/pre>\n
Output:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Using the fuser command<\/h2>\n
1. Checking the process detail accessing<\/p>\n
$ fuser -v .<\/pre>\n
Output:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In the above command, it displayed USER<\/strong>, PID<\/strong>, ACCESS<\/strong> and COMMAND<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
For example, I want to check the processes accessing of file test:<\/p>\n
$ fuser -v -m test<\/pre>\n
Output:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
2. Killing signal<\/p>\n
For example, to kill all the processes, run the command:<\/p>\n
$ fuser -k .<\/pre>\n
Output:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Using -ki option to ask yes\/no:<\/p>\n
$ fuser -ki .<\/pre>\n
Output:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
3. Listing all signals:<\/p>\n
$ fuser -l<\/pre>\n
Output:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Conclusion<\/h2>\n
We just taught you to find processes by using the fuser command in Linux.<\/p>\n
