Top for TRU64

[ALPHA_10]

Could you please tell me what is TOP (HP-UX) for TRU64 ?

Normally, the collect command is used to display performance data, you can use for example:

collect -sp -S

But it only sorts by cpu usage, not by memmory usage.

The top command is not part of the Tru64 UNIX operating system, but it is distributed as freeware on the Tru64 UNIX Associated Products CD-ROM (APCD). The top command lists the processes with the highest CPU percentages.

Also you can look into sar, dxsysinfo, and sys_check commands to monitor the various systems activity such as paging, activity by any specifi process, memory usuage, device and file-system activities.

"top" for Tru64 is probably about the same
(to the user) as "top" for any other UNIX
system.

Until now, I've been using an older version:

urtx# top -v
top: version 3.5.1

but 3.6.1 seems to work, too:
