Loadwatch software enables a child process to operate exclusively under specific machine load conditions.
Loadwatch is a software tool that allows a single child process to run only when the load on a machine is within certain bounds. When the machine's load exceeds the high load mark, then the child process is stopped. The process only restarts when the machine's load drops below the low load mark. The load is checked at a user-definable interval. The software is distributed under the GNU GPL and can be used by anyone.
To use loadwatch, users can enter various command line arguments such as load sampling interval, high load mark, low load mark, and number of children to fork. Additionally, users can point loadwatch to a file that will be used to externally control a loadwatch process. The software can be manipulated via the lw-ctl command, which allows users to put the loadwatch process into RUN, STOP, or WATCH mode.
Users can also put lw-ctl in a cron job that runs in the morning to put the job in STOP mode and again in the evening to put the job back into WATCH mode. The children that loadwatch forks are all part of the same process group, and loadwatch stops and starts the processes by signaling the process group with SIGSTOP and SIGCONT, respectively.
If you have suggestions or bug reports about loadwatch, you can send them to the developer. The software is beneficial for controlling various processes, such as distributed.net clients or crack. Overall, loadwatch provides a great way to control and monitor processes on a machine to ensure they run efficiently.
