Here are 2 scripts designed to asses the systems processes and their oom_score.
The oom score will dictate which process is most likely to be killed next by the kernel when oom-killer is invoked (due to low memory (ram))
Safest way to run the script:
git clone https://github.com/LukeShirnia/OOM-Killer-score.git
cd OOM-Killer-score
python score_check.py
To run script:
Note: the python script runs faster than the bash script.
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LukeShirnia/OOM-Killer-score/master/score_check.sh | bash
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LukeShirnia/OOM-Killer-score/master/score_check.py | python
Or you can use the following bash one-liner (but again, python is quicker):
for i in $(find /proc -maxdepth 1 -type d); do if [ -f "$i"/oom_score ]; then printf "$(cat "$i"/oom_score) "; pid=$(echo "$i" | awk -F'/' '{print $3}';); if [ "$(cat "$i"/oom_score)" -ge 1 ];then printf "$(ps -p "$pid" -o comm=) "; fi; printf "$i/oom_score \n"; fi; done | awk '$1 > 1' | sort -nr -k1
