unknow process taking up more than 50% CPU

[jasonK_1]

Hi,

OS: HP-UX hp B.11.31 U 9000/800 unlimited-user license
I am trying to find which process is taking more than 50% of the CPU time. So far I fail to spot it using top or glanceplus. The only way to stop it is to reboot the server. I attached pix of glanceplus running in the adviser mode along with top. Below is the out of the ps -eafxxx:

Looks like you have lots of short-lived processes. Try 'sar -c 5 5' to confirm that fork/exec rates are high.

This is how you find the biggest cpu and memory consumers in hpux

UNIX95=1 ps -ef -o cpu,pid,ppid,wchan,comm | sort -rn 10 | head 10

For memory its the same except substitute 'vsz' with 'cpu'. Note that you can also substitute 'pcpu' for 'cpu'.

[jasonK_1]

Michael,

Even in my glance syntax file, I have the below statement but glance didn't show which process eating up more than 50% CPU. It shows all other processes that consumed more than 10% but not the one with 50% CPU, just same as top command.

process loop
if PROC_CPU_TOTAL_UTIL > 10 then
{
print PROC_PROC_NAME,"|",PROC_CPU_TOTAL_UTIL,"|",PROC_USER_NAME
}

[Michael Steele_2]

I think you are missing the point, this is a sorted list from High to Low.

[jasonK_1]

Michael,

From that command output, it still didn't show that process. I am totaling all the proccess' CPU usage, but they don't add up to 50%

[Dennis Handly]

>but not the one with 50% CPU,

There isn't one. You have lots of processes that add up to 50%.
Also top shows you have 30% in system code, not sure if that will show up in the process line in top?
If your highest guy is inetd with 2.8%, you aren't going to find anything.

What's your real problem?
