工具集合介绍：
一共安装了2个工具(命令)，即inotifywait和inotifywatch
inotifywait:在被监控的文件或目录上等待特定文件系统事件(open、close、delete等)发生，执行后处于阻塞状态，适合在shell脚本中使用。
inotifywatch:收集被监视的文件系统使用度统计数据，指定文件系统事件发生的次数统计。
4）inotify命令常用参数详解
1 [root@nfs-server inotify-tools]# ./bin/inotifywait --help 2 inotifywait 3.14 3 Wait for a particular event on a file or set of files. 4 Usage: inotifywait [ options ] file1 [ file2 ] [ file3 ] [ ... ] 5 Options: 6 -r|--recursive Watch directories recursively. ##递归查询目录 7 -q|--quiet Print less (only print events) ##打印很少的信息，仅仅打印监控相关的信息 8 -m|--monitor Keep listening for events forever. Without 9 this option, inotifywait will exit after one 10 event is received. ##始终保持事件监听状态 11 --excludei <pattern> 12 Like --exclude but case insensitive. ##排除文件或目录时，不区分大小写 13 --timefmt <fmt> strftime-compatible format string for use with 14 %T in --format string. ##指定时间的输出格式
