PS command - TIME column is 00:00:00
Hi,
I am running the following command:

Code:
ps -efk -o "user pid ppid pcpu pmem stime time vsz rssize args"

But TIME column is always 00:00:00 . The AIX Actual version is 6.1.8.0
When I run it on another server that I have with version 6.1.0.0, the output is valid.


Regards,
Amit

Then it would be a bug do you not think? Have you patched to the latest 6.1.8.0 level (in other words, what does oslevel -s say?)

On the server where I have the issues:

Code:
Fileset                                 Actual Level        Maintenance Level
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
bos.rte                                 6.1.8.0             6.1.0.0

On the server where it is working fine:

6.1.0.0

oslevel -q -s | head -5 output please.

Other useful examples for the kind of output I am looking for:
Code:
michael@x054:[/home/michael]lslpp -w /usr/bin/ps
  File                                        Fileset               Type
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  /usr/bin/ps                                 bos.rte.control       File
michael@x054:[/home/michael]lslpp -L bos.rte.control
  Fileset                      Level  State  Type  Description (Uninstaller)
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  bos.rte.control           6.1.7.18    C     F    System Control Commands

Issue doesn't exist after installing SP2
I checked the command on another server that has AIX 6.1.8.15 installed.
The issue doesn't exist there.

The output that you asked for:

Code:
brclqa8@dallas:/home2/brclqa8 > oslevel -q -s | head -5

Then of course what would be interesting is what is the output of the command on the server that is working(as oppessed to telling us that some fileset is at 6.1.8.15 - these numbers differ with each fileset!)

But, without further ado I suggest you go to Fixcentral and download the "latest" (was released in February!) service pack Fixpack: 6100-08-02-1316 details and perform the command

Code:
# smitty update_all
