Today, I will show you how to install htop in CentOS 7 in your Virtual Machine.
What is htop?
is an interactive real-time process monitoring application for Linux/Unix like systems and also a handy alternative to top command, which is the default process monitoring tool that comes with pre-installed on all Linux operating systems.
With that said, let us first install EPEL repository and enable this to our CentOS 7. To do so, please run this command below:
yum install -y wget
wget dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/Packages/e/epel-release-7-11.noarch.rpm
Then,
rpm -ihv epel-release-7-11.noarch.rpm 
Finally, let us install htop.
yum install -y htop
Once completed. You can test this htop running this command below:
htop
At this point, you should be all set. Great job.
