Can any one tell me, if there are any commands on this Unix which are equivalent to "top" and "sar" on HP-UX or Sun Solaris ?
I am particularly interested in knowing the CPU Load, what process is running on which CPU, etc.

delete_clearinghouse
delete clearinghouse(1m) delete clearinghouse(1m)
NAME
delete clearinghouse - Deletes the specified clearinghouse from the local server system
SYNOPSIS
cdscp delete clearinghouse clearinghouse-name
ARGUMENT
The full name of the clearinghouse.
DESCRIPTION
The delete clearinghouse command deletes a clearinghouse from the local server system. CDS does not permit you to delete a cleared clear-
inghouse. Before you can delete a cleared clearinghouse, you must recreate it using the create clearinghouse command.
The delete clearinghouse command automatically deletes all read-only replicas from a clearinghouse. CDS does not permit you to delete a
clearinghouse that contains a master replica. See the DCE Directory Service module of the DCE Administration Guide for more information
about handling master replicas when deleting a clearinghouse.
Permissions Required
You must have write and delete permission to the clearinghouse and administer permission to all directories that store replicas in the
clearinghouse. The server principal needs delete permission to the associated clearinghouse object entry and administer permission to all
directories that store replicas in the clearinghouse.
NOTES
It is recommended that you delete all replicas except the root before issuing this command.
This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may not be provided in future releases of DCE.
EXAMPLE
The following command deletes a clearinghouse named /.:/sales/Orion_CH from the local server system: cdscp> delete clearinghouse
/.:/sales/Orion_CH
RELATED INFORMATION
Commands: clear clearinghouse(1m), create clearinghouse(1m), list clearinghouse(1m), set cdscp preferred clearinghouse(1m), show clearing-
house(1m), show cdscp preferred clearinghouse(1m)
