Solaris 5.10 CPU Information With Timestamp
Hi,

In Solaris 5.10, can I run a command or a small script that will output
CPU% user, system, wait and idle (The output from iostat or vmstat)
along with a date/timestamp. The date/timestamp can be in any
format that is easy to understand.

I intend to use crontab to call the script once an hour.

So, example:


June 20, 2013 5:47:48 PM 1 1 0 98 (us, sy, wt, id from iostat)
June 20, 2013 6:47:48 PM 1 2 0 97


Thanks,
QZ1

Have a look at "SAR".

Duke's suggestion is spot on. The only thing to note is there have to be some crontab jobs setup to gather raw data so you can view it and see trends.

If you want an instant system snapshot of right now -
Code:
prstat

is your choice. You can use iostat/vmstat to do the same thing.

There is no tool that sticks the two together - you have to code something up yourself. On a per user basis that information is in /proc.
Rich Teer's site (Solaris system programming) has C code to do just. Look for psrinfo.c.
