lkeijser/atop repository overview

Docker container that runs atop. Added a lot of useful tools like tcpdump, curl, strace, git, wget, lftp, mysql and postgres (pgcli) clients, etc. If you want to troubleshoot something and don't have the necessary tools available, this container is for you.

Run it with elevated privileges to make use of tcpdump etc.:

$ sudo docker run -d -it --pid host --net host --privileged --name atop --tmpfs /log:rw,size=128M lkeijser/atop:latest

This will make atop log to a temp volume (in-memory, 128M) mounted under /log. It should run for about 2 weeks before filling up the volume.

Check atop logs with:

$ atop -r /log/atop_log

or just watch the current behavior:

$ atop X

where X is the refresh interval, in seconds
