CPU Utilized

Hi,

How can i know the percentage of CPU utilized by such process or by user, for example the percentage for all the root user process.

Thanks

top will give the percentage for each process. For a user, you would have to add them up.

Hi,

ok, but I want to know the percentage of specific process on total CPU number, not on one CPU.

"For a user, you would have to add them up." do you mean

# top root =========> but i don't see any output related to root user

Thanks

Then you just divide by the total number of CPUs.

>top root => but I don't see any output related to root user

You would need to add up all of the processes owned by root. Using ps(1) may be easier:

UNIX95=EXTENDED_PS ps -u root -opid= -ouser= -opcpu= -ocomm=

Hi,

thanks for your suppor, but What is the third line ?

# UNIX95=EXTENDED_PS ps -u elink -opid= -ouser= -opcpu= -ocomm=

12616 elink     0.34 perl_node
25954 elink     0.14 c_node
13969 elink     0.16 perl_node
9544 elink     0.77 perl_node
22468 elink     0.14 perl_node
8677 elink     0.19 c_node
16422 elink     0.38 perl_node
16835 elink     0.75 c_node
16046 elink     0.19 perl_node
22348 elink     0.25 perl_node
8389 elink     0.24 perl_node
22446 elink     0.21 perl_node
12928 elink     0.50 perl_node
7742 elink     0.33 perl_node
16539 elink     0.19 perl_node
11091 elink     0.42 perl_node
12487 elink     0.51 c_node
10736 elink     0.78 perl_node
24487 elink     0.37 perl_node
441 elink     1.96 perl_node

The third column is the percentage CPU time.

>Then you just divide by the total number of CPUs. Can you give me example:

UNIX95=EXTENDED_PS ps -u elink -opid= -ouser= -opcpu= -ocomm= |

awk -v cpus=$NUM -v user=elink '

{

cpu_percentage += $3

}

END { print "Total machine usage for", user ":", cpu_percentage / cpus; }'

Where $NUM is the number of CPUs on your machine.

Hi,

thanks for your support, but i have the last quetions

how to get sar output of CPU utlization for 1 day and save it to file.

Thanks

Take a look at sar(1m), sadc(1m), sa1(1m) and sa2(1m).

you can use following hpux utilities to get CPU Utilized.

1. top

2. sar

3. glance

How about this?

UNIX95= ps -e -o "pcpu args" |sort -r | head -20

sample output

# UNIX95= ps -e -o "pcpu args" |sort -r | head -20
1.27 vxfsd
0.37 /opt/OV/bin/ovcd
0.32 /opt/wbem/lbin/cimprovagt 17 15 HPUXIOTreeIndicationProviderModule
