Thank you bakunin for the response , it is very much clear
one of the process has the following details , TIME+ means Total time of activity of this process, for process 29230 , is this active for 667 hours , means 27 days ,but the server itself did not exist 20 days ago, it is a fresh installation started 10 days ago, how to understand 29230 process
According to your first top this server has been up and running for 36 days:

Your server is pegged by those processed that I have highlighted in red. They are using most of the cpu cycles. %id in red indicates the cpu available (idle) and you have almost nothing. %us indicate what percentage of the cpu usage is being utilized by user space instead of system space (kernel) which it is indicated with %sy

Hi,
Could someone please tell me how to wakeup sleeping processes? (i.e. change the process status from "S" to "R" when viewing in ps command).
I ran a few programs in the background by "&" which went into "sleep" mode and I want them to run.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

kill
KILL(2) System Calls Manual KILL(2)NAME
kill - send signal to a process
SYNOPSIS
kill(pid, sig);
DESCRIPTION
Kill sends the signal sig to the process specified by the process number in r0. See signal(2) for a list of signals.
The sending and receiving processes must have the same effective user ID, otherwise this call is restricted to the super-user.
If the process number is 0, the signal is sent to all other processes in the sender's process group; see tty(4).
If the process number is -1, and the user is the super-user, the signal is broadcast universally except to processes 0 and 1, the scheduler
and initialization processes, see init(8).
Processes may send signals to themselves.
SEE ALSO signal(2), kill(1)DIAGNOSTICS
Zero is returned if the process is killed; -1 is returned if the process does not have the same effective user ID and the user is not
super-user, or if the process does not exist.
ASSEMBLER
(kill = 37.)
(process number in r0)
