NAME

       clamdtop - monitor the Clam AntiVirus Daemon

SYNOPSIS

       clamdtop [options] [clamdspec ...]

DESCRIPTION

       clamdtop  is  a tool to monitor one or multiple clamd(s).  It has a (color) ncurses interface, that shows
       the jobs in clamd's queue, memory usage, and information about the loaded signature  database.   You  can
       specify on the command-line to which clamd(s) it should connect to. By default it will attempt to connect
       to the local clamd as defined in clamd.conf.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              Display help information and exit.

       -V, --version
              Print version number and exit.

       --config-file=FILE
              Read clamd settings from FILE, to determine how to connect to it.

       clamdspec
              Specifies the clamd to connect to: either a path to the local (unix domain) socket of clamd, or an
              IP  address and an port number (that defaults to 3310) to connect to a local or remote clamd using
              TCP/IP.

OVERVIEW

   KEYS:
       H

              Displays a short helpscreen, describing the meaning of various elements on the display.

       Q

              Quits clamdtop

       R

              Resets the maximum values.

       up arrow, down arrow

              If you are monitoring multiple clamds then clamdtop will show an overview screen by  default.  You
              can  use  the  up  arrow  and   down  arrow keys to cycle through each clamd individually, and the
              overview screen.  A blue bar will highlight the clamd that is currently shown in  detail.  On  the
              overview screen none of the clamds is selected (hence no blue bar), and you can see the items from
              the queue of all clamds.

   The top bar
       Shows the version of clamdtop and the current time. Clamdtop updates the display once every 2 seconds.

   The list of clamds
       Shows the clamds that clamdtop is connected to, and statistics about them.

       NO     Unique clamd number

       CONNTIME
              How long clamdtop has been connected (reset upon a reconnect)

       LIV    Total number of live threads

       IDL    Total number of idle threads

       QUEUE  Number of items in queue

       MAXQ   Maximum number of items observed in the queue

       MEM    Total memory usage (if available)

       DBVER  Database version

       DBTIME Database publish time

   Clamd detailed view
       Primary threads live
              The number of threads that are executing commands or scanning.

       Primary threads idle
              The number of threads that are idle, waiting for commands. They will exit  after  IdleTimeout  (30
              seconds).

       Primary threads max
              The maximum number of threads configured.

       Queue items
              The  number  of  items  (scanjobs)  in  clamd's  queue  that  are  waiting for a free thread to be
              processed.

       Queue max
              The maximum number of items observed in clamd's queue.

   The memory usage view
       If available, it will show details on clamd's memory usage:

       Mem heap
              The amount of memory used by libc from the heap in MegaBytes.

       Mem mmap
              The amount of memory used by libc from mmap-allocated memory in MegaBytes.

       Mem unused
              The amount of memory that can be reclaimed by libc.

       Libc used
              The amount of useful memory allocated by libc.

       Libc free
              The amount of memory allocated by libc, that can't be freed due to fragmentation.

       Libc total
              The amount of memory allocated by libc from the system in total.

       Pool count
              The number of mmap regions allocated by clamd' memory pool allocator (for the signature database).

       Pool used
              The amount of memory used by clamd's memory pool allocator (for the signature database).

       Total  The total amount of memory allocated by clamd's memory pool allocator.

   The clamd job queue
       COMMAND
              Kind of command being executed, STATS is clamdtop, SCAN/CONTSCAN/FILDES/MULTISCAN  is  scan  of  a
              file/directory, MULTISCANFILE is scan of one item by a MULTISCAN job.

       QUEUEDSINCE
              The time since the command got queued, until now.

       FILE   The name of the file being processed (if applicable).

EXAMPLES

       (1) To connect to the clamd configured in the default clamd.conf:

              clamdtop

       (2) To connect to the clamd configured in another clamd.conf:

              clamdtop --config-file=/path/to/clamd.conf

       (3) To connect to a clamd running on another machine (192.168.0.3) on the LAN:

              clamdtop 192.168.0.3

       (4) To connect to a clamd running on another machine (192.168.0.3) on a non-default port (3410):

              clamdtop 192.168.0.3:3410

       (5) To monitor the local clamd and 2 other remote clamds over TCP/IP:

              clamdtop localhost 192.168.0.3 192.168.0.4

NOTES

       clamdtop  uses  colors  if  the  terminal  is capable of colors.  If you know your terminal is capable of
       colors, yet you aren't seeing any, then check that your TERM environment variable is set correctly.   For
       example try setting it to TERM=xterm-color if you are in an xterm-like environment. IPv6 support has been
       added. If specifying an IPv6 address, please use the normal IPv6 addressing rules. If specifying both  an
       IPv6 address and a port combination, encapsulate the IPv6 address in square brackets (e.g. [::1]:3410).

RETURN CODES

       0 : Normal termination

       >0: Error occurred.
