Does there are any tools or scrpts to gather cup, disk IO, memory usages infomation data

Dear Sirs

Does there are any tools or scrpts to gather cup, disk IO, memory usages infomation data in HP 11 and 11i. Appreciatively.

Best Regards

Eric,

Depending on what software is installed on your systems, you may already have a product called "Performance Agent" (previously called Measureware) installed on your systems.

See if:

mwa status

returns anything when run as root. If it does, you have measureware installed and will be able to extract more historical data than you could ever be interested in.

If it's not installed, then the easiest way to start to collect this sort of data is to enable accounting - see Shannon's post in this thread for details:

Eric,

Use sar, it is installed with all HP-UX versions.

EXAMPLES
Example 1: Viewing system activity
To see today's CPU activity so far:
example% sar
Example 2: Watching system activity evolve
To watch activity evolve for 10 minutes and save data to temp:
example% sar -o temp 60 10
Example 3: Reviewing disk and tape activity
To later review disk and tape activity from that period:
example% sar -d -f temp

Hello Shalom

Appreciate your help. And do you have any document about how to use it. Should I let this scripts setup as a schedule job in crontab ?

if issue this command -> ./system.perf.sh 6
then RUNSEC = 6 right ?

So what it means "nohup vmstat -d -n 1 6 ?

Thanks your great help.

Hi Eric:

> So what it means "nohup vmstat -d -n 1 6 ?

I would suggest you do:

# man nohup
# man vmstat

Hello All

I have gather some sar and vmstat data, and want to load them into database to generate a os performance report. Do you have any scripts which can catch my wanted data into text file ? Appreciate for all of your grate help. Thanks a lot.

Eric & Unix

Go back and read Duncan's comments regarding Measureware or Performance Agent.

Get it...set it up and start collecting data that you can then keep,collect and extract.

Have fun,
Rita
