Hi friends,
I am quite used to using glance in HPUX servers for analysis performance issues with a particular process as requested by app. folks.

The options which are very helpful to me are the "F" , "W" , "L" stats. How can i get the similar details on Linux servers without using glance? Unfortately we can't have glance due to cost cutting . I am currently having collectl installed there and i checked with its developer and he says we can't using collectl. Can you please suggest me a tool to get this useful data or please confirm that we simply can't have this data in Linux.

For quick reference, these are the options which i am refering to collectl on HPUX server:

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
F - Process Open Files
W - Process Wait States
L - Process System Calls

Glance Commands Menu

h - Online Help q - exit (or e) A - Application List
g - Process List d - Disk Report P - PRM Group List
a - CPU By Processor i - IO By File System Y - Global System Calls
c - CPU Report u - IO By Disk F - Process Open Files
m - Memory Report U - IO By HBA Card M - Process Memory Regions
t - System Tables v - IO By Logical Volume R - Process Resources
w - Swap Space N - NFS Global Activity W - Process Wait States
B - Global Waits n - NFS By System L - Process System Calls
Z - Global Threads l - Network By Interface y - Renice Process
G - Process Threads T - Trans Tracker s - Select Process
I - Thread Resource H - Alarm History J - Thread Wait
