ps -aux should be from /usr/ucb. The output should look like:
USER PID %CPU %MEM SZ RSS TT S START TIME COMMAND
root 1832 1.9 2.3 3048 2736 pts/6 O 10:48:56 0:00 /usr/ucb/ps -aux
You should be able to read the man page using
% man -s1b ps
which give you a different description of the ps command since this one is the Berkeley version of the ps command.
If you need cpu usage it gives the percentage of the cpu being used by a process and the time on the cpu (both user and system time) for the process.
You can look into the sar command if you are looking for cpu utilization (not by processes).
If you are just looking for a utility to monitor, look for top on the Internet.

NAME
cpu - A tool for user and group administration
SYNOPSIS
cpu [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
CPU is a tool for user administration, that was initially based on FreeBSD's pw(8). This tool will allow you to administer users and groups
on several different backends currently including LDAP and flat files. Please see the website http://cpu.sourceforge.net for more informa-
tion, or help improve the man page.
OPTIONS
There are two kinds of options; options for CPU and options for CPU modules. There are only four options for CPU, they are as follows:
-C configfile, --config configfile
The configuration file to be used by CPU. The options in this file are used for CPU modules.
-h, --help
Display help for CPU. If specified in conjunction with the -m option the help for that particular module is displayed.
-M method, --method=method
This is the method of administration. Current options are ldap or passwd (passwd is not yet working). This can be specified in the
configuration file.
-V, --version
