passenger-status(8) Adminstration Commands passenger-status(8)
NAME
passenger-status - inspect Phusion Passenger's internal status
SYNOPSIS
passenger-status [pid]
DESCRIPTION
passenger-status looks at the current status of a Phusion Passenger in-
stallation. It will locate Phusion Passenger automatically if it is run-
ning and will give you a list of instances if there is more than one
Phusion Passenger instance running. You can then select the instance by
specifying the relevant PID on the command line.
The general information section shows the following details:
max The maximum number of application instances that Phusion Passen-
ger will spawn. This equals the value given for PassengerMaxPool-
Size in the configuration.
count The number of application instances that are currently alive.
This value is always less than or equal to max.
active The number of application instances that are currently processing
requests. This value is always less than or equal to count.
inactive
The number of application instances that are currently not pro-
cessing requests, i.e. are idle. Idle application instances will
be shutdown after a while, as can be specified with Passenger-
PoolIdleTime in the configuration. The value of inactive equals
count - active.
The applications section shows each application instance, which direc-
tory it belongs to. The sessions field shows how many HTTP client are
currently being processed by that application instance.
OPTIONS
pid The process ID of the Phusion Passenger instance you want to look
at
