Overall CPU Usage

Hi Guys,

I am a newbie on the forum. This is my first post, so first of all I would like to introduce myself.

I am a SAS Analyst programmer working for an Health Insurance client. SAS is installed on a 16 CPU AIX Server with partitions running with shared processor. I have couple of questions hope you all will answer patiently Smilie



1. First of all I have no clue of what does this 16 CPU AIX Server with partitions running with shared processor means??
  • I ran the below command and after going through some definition created this statement.
  • vmstat -w 1 2, attached is the result (cmd_1)
So what exactly this 16 CPU AIX Server with partitions running with shared processor means??

2. I am very new to this server world, you all would have realized that by my first question, so can you guys suggest some books that can be the starting steps to gain knowledge in this area.



3. I ran the following command
  • mpstat -w 1 2 attached is the result (cmd_2)
  • Now my question is CPU usage of each CPU totals to be 100.1 & ALL showing cpu usage greater than 100. Why is the %ec value greater than 100
  • How can I effectively estimate the net CPU Usage of the server
  • My primary task is to get a fair bit of idea of the CPU usage and to understand if there is scope and capacity to run new jobs.
Regards
Saurabh
