Question Slow System

Hi,

I have an SCO-Unix server running.
There are some processes (unknown to me) which consume a lot of the system resources. This slows down the server dramatically.

Is there a command or program that monitors what processes are using the cpu, disk, etc.. and tell me how excessive and how long they use these resources?
I also would like to know, who (which user or deamon) is querying these processes?

Thanks,
-Hans

Just curious.... how much physical memory is installed on your server? and secondly... are you using SCSI hard drives? or IDE?
How large is your SWAP space? What version of SCO? SCO OpenServer? or Unixware? How may processors? How many users?
