A useful monitoring object is total available memory
And a warning threshold of 80 (percent usage).
This will warn before an "out of memory" situation occurs. It does not say anything about system performance.
Regarding CPU, a useful monitoring object is system load (obtained from the uptime command)
Best practice is an AND condition of (1min average, 5min average, 15min average) as done with awk,
and a threshold of 1.1 if the load is divided by the number of active virtual CPUs (here "cores" is set to 2).
Where the number of "cores" can be determined on HP-UX with
or
I think in HP-UX 11.x the best command to determine the logical CPUs is
