aix and nmon

Hi All,

First of all, I am a DBA and not an AIX admin. I am new at using this NMON tool.

In interactive mode, I can start nmon, push 't' to have the list of process with their statistic (ie cpu% etc.).

I would like to know if there is a way to redirect that screen output into a log file?

So far, I tried the following:
Code:
 root$ nmon -F /tmp/test_nmon.log -t
 root$ nmon -F /tmp/test_nmon.log2 -T

In both of my file, I have LOTS of informatino (LPar, VMStat, Disk, etc etc) but not the list of process.

What I am doing wrong?

Thank you,
Nayas~

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 Display the version of the software. SEE ALSO
