Using HP-UX v11
Need to monitor cpu and memory usage, total for system and separately for each user in command-line mode.
Found out next ways to monitor total cpu usage under hp-ux:
1) vmstat, also shows free memory
2) sar -M
ps -eo user,pcpu - does not work, means 'user-defined format'... (4 Replies)
Hi,
I am designing a load balancer for an application. I am trying to find out the CPU usage by a specifc Unix process (PID is known). I guess I can use ps command to find that. can somebody help me in finding what exact command I should use to find? It is on AIX 5.3.

I'm writing a bash script to log some selections from a sensors output (core temp, mb temp, etc.) and I would also like to have the current cpu usage as a percentage. I have no idea how to go about getting it in a form that a bash script can use. For example, I would simply look in the output of... (3 Replies)
Hi all,
Is it possible to get total memory usage and free memory usage without top? By Googling I found for total memory usage, use vmstat, for CPU, use mpstat, for disk I/O use iostat, is this correct? Will using sar gives the same result as ALL of these three (3) commands?
What about if I... (2 Replies)
Hi all
Can anyone advise/confirm whether total CPU usage when running sar is %user+%system+%iowait or is it %user+%system only?
I want to confirm whether I am having a CPU-bound problem or not.
This is a single-CPU VMware machine.

Hi,
I want to calculate the total cpu usage from the sar report. Say for example,
Linux 2.6.24-21-generic (blade10) 09/10/2012
04:54:36 PM CPU %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle

Hi,
I have a server box with 16GB ram in it, within the server box there are 3 VMs running with a total allocation of 9GB.
if I add up all the numbers under memory info using vmstat I get 15.8GB so I can say it adds up to 16Gb...
Is there a way to see from the command line how much memory... (2 Replies)
hi, i am using solaris server. I want to find the total CPU usage on a server. Top command will give that result, but here that command is not working. So anyone can help me to find the total CPU usage. (2 Replies)
Hi,
Recently i have write a simple script to capture CPU high usage based on prstat but i found out that it did capture correctly. I need to capture the rows that contains CPU usage more than 3%. Below line which i thought will capture CPU usage based CPU column in prstat(9th parameter) which is... (3 Replies)

sg_get_cpu_percents
sg_get_cpu_stats(3) Library Functions Manual sg_get_cpu_stats(3)NAME
sg_get_cpu_stats, sg_get_cpu_stats_diff, sg_get_cpu_percents - get cpu usage
SYNOPSIS
#include <statgrab.h>
sg_cpu_percents *sg_get_cpu_percents(void);
sg_cpu_stats *sg_get_cpu_stats(void);
sg_cpu_stats *sg_get_cpu_stats_diff(void);
DESCRIPTION
sg_get_cpu_stats() and sg_get_cpu_stats_diff() both return static pointers of type sg_cpu_stats. sg_get_cpu_stats() returns the total
amount of "ticks" the operating system has spent in each of the different states. sg_get_cpu_stats_diff() returns the difference in "ticks"
for each of the states since last time sg_get_cpu_stats_diff() or sg_get_cpu_stats() was called. If it has never been called, it will
return the result of sg_get_cpu_stats().
The value stored (the "ticks") will vary between operating systems. For example Solaris has a total of 100 per second, while Linux has sub-
stantially more. Also, different operating systems store different information - you won't find nice cpu on Solaris for example.
Because of this, you will ideally always want to work on a scale against the total, or in percentages.
sg_get_cpu_percents() returns a pointer to a static sg_cpu_percents. The function calls sg_get_cpu_stats_diff() and changes the values into
percentages. If it has never been called before (and nor has sg_get_cpu_stats() or sg_get_cpu_stats_diff()), the returned percentages will
be the systems total ever since its uptime. (Unless the counters have cycled)
RETURN VALUES
There are two structures returned by the CPU statistics functions.
typedef struct{
long long user;
long long kernel;
long long idle;
long long iowait;
long long swap;
long long nice;
long long total;
time_t systime;
}sg_cpu_stats;
typedef struct{
float user;
float kernel;
float idle;
float iowait;
float swap;
float nice;
time_t time_taken;
}sg_cpu_percents;
user kernel idle iowait swap nice
The different CPU states.
systime time_taken
The time taken in seconds since the last call of the function, or the system time.
