Hi,
Best option is using glance you can see the utilization of a process.
below switch you can use with glance
m :- Memory detail
s :- Single process detail
f :- Single process open file detail
I :- Per-thread resource utilization
L :- Per-process system call utilization
M :- Single process memory regions detail
W :- Single process wait states detail

Dear all,

Thanks for your reply.But I want in percentage format (%) for each process. Glance will give you only total information.
In Solaris "ps -aux" is using for that.

Thanks and regrds

Hi Anoop,

What you want is the ps UNIX95
do
# man ps
and look at options in UNIX standard synopsis
for example you could use it like this
UNIX95= ps -e -o "user,vsz,pcpu,args"| awk 'NR>1'| sort -kn2

Hope it helps

The leak detector is a good example of ps code and it works on Linux, HP-UX and Solaris.

It might be helpful.
