PLEASE use code tags as demanded!
Reading man pages is highly educational and sometimes really helps. cf. man top:
Quote:
-b : Batch-mode operation
Starts top in 'Batch' mode, which could be useful for sending output from top to other programs or to a file.
The messy stuff in your sample is terminal control chars, usually introduced by an <ESC> char, followed by the terminal command (position, colour, ...). More info: man console_codesYou can try to remove them with a script for awk, sed, perl, ...

Here is what i'm using on my HPUX boxes for basic CPU and DISK monitoring from cron in this manner :
Code:
00,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55      *    *    *    *    /bin/awk -f /root/monitork /root/mon.data > /dev/null 2>&1

It's not perfect, but suits my needs Smilie

Code:
BEGIN {
cpu=95
stat="1 100"
sms="mailx -s \"`hostname`\" smsaddress@domain.com"
ml="mailx -s \"`hostname` Overload\" mail.address@domain.com"
system("bdf > mon.data")
system("sar -u "stat" >> mon.data")
close("bdf >> mon.data")
close("sar -u "stat" >> mon.data")
}
match($0,/Average/) {
        if ( $2 > cpu ) {
        loadmon="SAR: CPU is above "cpu"% on "$2"% for "substr(stat,3,5) " seconds"
        }
}
match($0,/9[4-9]% \//) {
        diskmon="Mountpoints ALARM "$NF " is on "$(NF -1)
}
match($0,/100% \//) {
        print $NF $(NF -1)
        full="Mountpoints ALARM "$NF " is full"
}
END {
        if ( loadmon != "" ) {
                print loadmon | ml
                }
        if ( diskmon != "" || full != "" ) {
                print diskmon "\n" full | sms
                }
}

Hope that helps.
