This would suggest that you are on a multi-processor system and the process running is multi-threaded to take advantage of the hardware. You will only get up to 100% per processor, but they will be totted up for a multi-thread process.
Do you have 40 processors or more?
The other potential is for a process that is started during the time that top is taking it's sample. If it takes 0.1 seconds for top to collect everything and a process starts after 0.09 seconds but still gets collected, I have seen that skew the figures momentarily.
Perhaps from the command line, you could use vmstat 2 2 at the time and find the CPU counts there for the whole machine. You can also:-
... on older unix servers to get the busiest process at the bottom of the list and you can check if it is newly started. The sort would change to:-
I need to capture the following data on an hourly basis through cronjob scheduling:-
1. load averages
2. Total no. of processes.
3. CPU state
4. Memory
5. Top 3 process details.
All the above information is available through the command 'top'. But here we need to automate the same and... (4 Replies)
hi,
I want to extract and save the cpu(s) information from top command output, but individual cpu statistics separately on a multi-processor machine.
In command line, top will show this statistics when we press the switch "1".
any ideas?

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
term::ansi::ctrl::unix - Control operations and queries
SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8.4
package require term::ansi::ctrl::unix ?0.1?
::term::ansi::ctrl::unix::import ?ns? ?arg...?
::term::ansi::ctrl::unix::raw
::term::ansi::ctrl::unix::raw
::term::ansi::ctrl::unix::columns
::term::ansi::ctrl::unix::rows
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
WARNING: This package is unix-specific and depends on the availability of two unix system commands for terminal control, i.e. stty and
tput, both of which have to be found in the $PATH. If any of these two commands is missing the loading of the package will fail.
The package provides commands to switch the standard input of the current process between raw and cooked input modes, and to query the size
of terminals, i.e. the available number of columns and lines.
API
INTROSPECTION
::term::ansi::ctrl::unix::import ?ns? ?arg...?
This command imports some or all attribute commands into the namespace ns. This is by default the namespace ctrl. Note that this is
relative namespace name, placing the imported command into a child of the current namespace. By default all commands are imported,
this can howver be restricted by listing the names of the wanted commands after the namespace argument.
OPERATIONS
::term::ansi::ctrl::unix::raw
This command switches the standard input of the current process to raw input mode. This means that from then on all characters typed
by the user are immediately reported to the application instead of waiting in the OS buffer until the Enter/Return key is received.
::term::ansi::ctrl::unix::raw
This command switches the standard input of the current process to cooked input mode. This means that from then on all characters
typed by the user are kept in OS buffers for editing until the Enter/Return key is received.
::term::ansi::ctrl::unix::columns
This command queries the terminal connected to the standard input for the number of columns available for display.
::term::ansi::ctrl::unix::rows
This command queries the terminal connected to the standard input for the number of rows (aka lines) available for display.
