NMON does not seem to work properly with the process option "-C" and recording mode "-f". It only shows the TOP processes.
If you specify a recording option "-f", the nmon process goes to background (init) and your command "time nmon -t -C cron -s 5 -c 2 -F outfile" returns immediately
I'm trying to monitor the CPU usage of a process and output that value to a file or variable. I know topas or nmon can tell me this in interactive mode but what I need is topas-looking output that allows me to write to a file after a discrete interval. Unlike nmon data collection to a file on top... (5 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.

Hi,
I have a shell script. But, upon execution of the same, the cpu usage is sometimes getting 100 % (checked executing top command).
At that point of time, my process hangs, doesn't run anymore. I need to kill it manually.
My concern is, is there any default method, by which I can check... (1 Reply)
I don't know when the process will start and end, I need write a script to trace it's cpu/memory usage when it is runing. How to write this script? (2 Replies)
Hi guys,
I am currently writing a JAVA script to monitor certain unix processes through JConsole.
Upon having lots of trouble with runtime.exec, i decided to bypass the top/ps command call and just get the information straight from /proc/*pid*/whatever.
Now i can pull back any... (0 Replies)
Hi,
I will be creating a process myself and I want to know the average CPU and RAM used by the process over the lifetime of the process. I see that there are various tools available(pidstat) for doing , I was wondering if it possible to do it in a single command while creation.
Thanks in... (3 Replies)
OS: AIX
so we frequently receive a lot of cpu related alerts. all types of checks have been created to keep an eye on the cpu but a lot of these checks make too much noise as the CPU is always being seen as high. the system and application owners say there's no issue with the cpu.
so now,... (6 Replies)
I can't check actual memory usage in the Redhat 5.5...
The used memory is 14214 Mb of Total 15919 by Free -m command.
I sum the RSS value on PS aux command result and the value is 5428.66Mb.
Yes It's quite different actual usage memory and RSS value.
So I added Shared memory value... (5 Replies)

WMTOP(1) User Manuals WMTOP(1)NAME
wmtop
SYNOPSIS
wmtop [-c command] [-U] [-x regexp] [-m]
DESCRIPTION
wmtop displays, as a WindowMaker dockapp, the CPU usage of the top 3 processes satisfying user supplied criteria.
OPTIONS -U displays processes owned only for the current user.
-c command
Execute command when dockapp is double clicked.
-x regexp
Exclude processes whose name matches the given regular expression. The regular expression need only match part of the process name.
Use '^' to mean the start of the name and '$' to mean the end.
-m Show (physical) memory usage rather than CPU usage. (Linux only)
-s Set interval between process samples in milliseconds.
-r Set interval between screen updates in milliseconds.

Monitor only users processesr, exclude WindowMaker dock apps and pop up xps when double clicked:
wmtop -c xps -U -x '^wm'
