How do you view running processes on a Linux server?

The ability to view running processes on a Linux server is essential for system administration and monitoring. The option that involves using the 'ps' command or 'top' command is indeed correct for this purpose.

The 'ps' command provides a snapshot of the current processes, allowing users to see information such as Process ID (PID), user ownership, CPU and memory usage, and the command that initiated the process. By default, it might show only processes running in the current shell, but with options, it can display all processes for all users.

On the other hand, the 'top' command offers a dynamic, real-time view of the processes. It constantly updates the display and provides information on CPU and memory utilization, making it easier to monitor system performance and resource usage live.

In summary, both commands are fundamental tools for identifying what is running on a Linux server, enabling system administrators to manage and troubleshoot processes effectively.
