I need a detailed explanation on the output of TOP and GLANCE.
For example;
>324 processes: 278 sleeping, 41 running, 1 zombie
what does zombie mean?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Interpreting TOP and GLANCE outputs
====zombie process====
The name given to a process which terminates for any reason, but whose parent process has not yet waited for it to terminate (via wait(2)). The process which terminated continues to occupy a slot in the process table until its parent process waits for it. Because it has terminated, however, there is no other space allocated to it either in user or kernel space. It is therefore a relatively harmless occurrence which will rectify itself the next time its parent process waits. The ps(1) command lists zombie processes as defunct.

Re: Interpreting TOP and GLANCE outputs
in top output: numbers are for 1 minute, 5 min and 15 minute avarage. if these numbers are high it may be a performance bottleneck.
