Troubleshooting process-related issues in Linux often involves various commands and checks. Here are some important Linux commands for process troubleshooting

1. **List Running Processes:** Use `ps aux` or `top` to list currently running processes.

2. **Check Process Details:** Use `ps -p <PID>` to view detailed information about a specific process.

3. **Kill a Process:** Use `kill` or `killall` to terminate processes, e.g., `kill <PID>`.

4. **Find Process by Name:** Use `pgrep` to find processes by name, e.g., `pgrep <process_name>`.

5. **View Process Tree:** Use `pstree` to display the process tree.

6. **Check Process Limits:** Use `ulimit -a` to view process-level resource limits.

7. **Check Process CPU Usage:** Use `htop` or `top` to monitor CPU usage by processes.

8. **Check Process Memory Usage:** Use `htop` or `top` to monitor memory usage by processes.

9. **Check Process Disk I/O:** Use `iotop` to monitor disk I/O by processes.

10. **Check Process Network Activity:** Use `iftop` or `nethogs` to monitor network activity by processes.

11. **Check Process Priority:** Use `nice` and `renice` to set or adjust process priority.

12. **Check Open Files by Process:** Use `lsof` to list open files and sockets by process.

13. **Check Process Environment:** Use `cat /proc/<PID>/environ` to view the environment variables of a process.

14. **Check Process Threads:** Use `ps -p <PID> -L` to list threads of a process.

15. **Check Process Dependencies:** Use `ldd` to list shared library dependencies of a binary.

16. **Monitor Process Resource Usage:** Use `sar` or `pidstat` to monitor various resource usage by processes.

17. **Check Process Start Time:** Use `ps -p <PID> -o lstart` to check the start time of a process.

18. **Check Zombie Processes:** Use `ps aux | grep 'Z'` to identify and handle zombie processes.

19. **Check Process Traces:** Use `strace` or `ltrace` to trace system or library calls made by a process.

20. **Process Management with systemd:** Use `systemctl` to start, stop, enable, or disable services and processes managed by systemd.
