System exploration and troubleshooting tool
Sysdig is a simple tool for deep system visibility, with native support for containers. It combines features of multiple system administration tools such as the strace
, tcpdump
, htop
, iftop
and lsof
into a single interface. The novel architecture of the tool means that the performance impact of the tracing on the system is very light, compared to the likes of strace
. The sysdig
command has an interface similar to strace
, while the csysdig
command is better suited for interactive used, and has a user interface similar to htop
.
If you use Guix System, the kernel Linux has BPF support, and you should launch this tool using the --modern-bpf argument of the sysdig
or csysdig
commands. The following Bash aliases can be added to your ~/.bash_profile
file, for example:
alias sysdig=sudo sysdig --modern-bpf alias cysdig=sudo csysdig --modern-bpf
