Spruce Up tools to view amount of Free Memory and Disk Usage

https://puppylinux-or-pcbsd.blogspot.com/ Here is my source list of Free Memory Tools

Tools to check Free Memory available and How much SWAP memory is used

Use a perl shell script made for BSDs:

You can use this script.

# fetch http://www.cyberciti.biz/files/scripts/freebsd-memory.pl.txt
# mv freebsd-memory.pl.txt /usr/local/bin/free
# chmod +x /usr/local/bin/free
# perl --version
# whereis perl
# vi /usr/local/bin/free        change first line #!/usr/bin/perl   to #!/usr/local/bin/perl
# free

Linux like free command for my FreeBSD server
Freecolor is a free replacement that displays free memory graphically as a bargraph. It supports the same options as free. Install freecolor, enter:
# cd /usr/ports/sysutils/freecolor
# make install clean
OR
# pkg install freecolor
To see memory details, enter:
$ freecolor -m -o

Active: number of bytes active.
Inact: number of bytes inactive.
Wired: number of bytes wired down, including BIO-level cached file data pages.

Installing htop on FreeBSD

First, make sure you system is up to date (see how to install sudo on FreeBSD or use the su - command to gain root access):
$ sudo pkg update $ sudo pkg upgrade
Finally, run the following to install htop on FreeBSD:
$ sudo pkg install htop

# vmstat

You can avoid Perl based code and use standard sh shell to get same info using freebsd-memory.sh script:
$ fetch https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ocochard/myscripts/master/FreeBSD/freebsd-memory.sh ## or use curl command ## ## $ curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ocochard/myscripts/master/FreeBSD/freebsd-memory.sh $ sh freebsd-memory.sh
