TOP command

Michael Cline_1 — Tue, 20 Sep 2005 08:21:57 GMT

Does anyone by chance know the Solaris equivalent of the TOP command? I'm running HP-UX but trying to diagnose a problem on a solaris box and it won't recognize TOP like HP does...

Thanks!

For solaris you should go for prstat.

Its the most accurate.
