1 lsof is a command listing open files.
2 Open files in the system include disk files, named pipes, network sockets
3 and devices opened by all processes.
4 One use for this command is when a disk cannot be unmounted because
5 (unspecified) files are in use.
6 The listing of open files can be consulted (suitably filtered if necessary)
7 to identify the process that is using the files.
