Performance testing on AIX
I'm doing performance testing for one application which works on AIX.
But I don't know which performance parameters of memory need to be collected. Now, I just know very few:
1. page in
2. page out
3. fre
They are all collected by "vmstat" command.
I want to know, except for above parameters, what else do I need to collected?
Thanks in advance!
