       [user]

       [pset_list]]

       [user]

       [pset_list]]

DESCRIPTION

       prints  the current time, the length of time the system has been up, the number of users logged on to the system, and the average number of
       jobs in the run queue over the last 1, 5, and 15 minutes for the active processors.

       is linked to and prints the same output as displaying a summary of the current activity on the system.

   Options
       and recognize the following options:

	      Print the current time, the length of time the system has been up,
		     and the number of users logged on to the system in the first line of the output.  The average number of jobs in the core over
		     the last 1, 5, and 15 minutes for the active processors is also printed.

		     When used with the option, the load averages for the processor sets (psets) are calculated on a core basis.

	      Suppress the first line and the heading line.
		     This option should not be used with the option.  This option assumes the use of the option to

	      Use long output.
		     This option assumes the use of the option to

	      Print the current time, the length of time the system has been up, and
		     the  number  of  users logged on to the system in the first line of the output.  The load averages over the last 1, 5, and 15
		     minutes for the processor sets (psets) given in the command line, pset_list, are displayed in the subsequent  lines.   If	no
		     arguments are given, the load averages are displayed for all the psets in the system.

		     If  pset id of an empty pset is given in the command line, a corresponding message will be displayed.  If the kernel does not
		     have the pset capability, gives an error.	The option cannot be used along with other options except

		     This is the default for the command.
