Process wait time

Hi all,

I am trying to find out the process wait time on Unix(AIX/SOLARIS) machine( only sh/ksh/csh):

Like

EXAMPLE 1 :
$ vmstat 2

System configuration: lcpu=16 mem=32000MB

kthr memory page faults cpu
----- ----------- ------------------------ ------------ -----------
r b avm fre re pi po fr sr cy in sy cs us sy id wa
0 0 2172424 3312438 0 0 0 0 0 0 9 1187 158 0 0 99 0
0 0 2172426 3312436 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 1042 112 0 0 99 0
1 0 2172426 3312431 0 0 0 0 0 0 6 1413 120 9 0 91 0

The red colored numbers here shows the cpu wait.


We can find out which process is waiting using ps -el , but it gives the event address in the system
EXAMPLE 2 :

ps -el
F S UID PID PPID C PRI NI ADDR SZ WCHAN TTY TIME CMD
200003 A 0 1 0 0 60 20 18001400 688 - 3:11 init
240001 A 0 147682 1 0 60 20 4828b400 520 * - 242:01 syncd
240001 A 0 274448 258308 0 60 20 380272400 1404 - 229:46 dtgreet
240001 A 0 299146 331868 0 60 20 b8395400 284 f100060004374208 - 0:00 writesrv
240001 A 1 311410 331868 0 60 20 1283a7400 1380 - 0:00 rpc.statd


But I want to know the process wait time. Any help in this regard is appreciated.
