CPU Utilization in Minutes

[Glenn Mitchell_2]

How do I find the CPU Utilization, in minutes, for my HP9000/800 N4000 server?

I have been asked to produce our N4000 CPU utilization report in minutes. I ran GlancePlus but do not know how to interpret the columns to give "minutes". I can readily see what percentage is displayed for the 4 processors. Attached is a display dump for your viewing.

There is a top command that send the output to a file. It may be able to produce the output in the format you desire.

You are going to have to better define your requirements.

What is your starting point for the "minutes" value? Since the system rebooted? Two weeks ago last Tuesday? 2 hours ago?

You also need to better define what processes you want the usage for.

What is the purpose of this data? What is going to be done with it?

I need to acquire the minutes values since the last reboot for use in estimating financial cost to charge back to the users.

For this type of thing, you really need to study up on and use system accounting. Charge back is precisely what it was designed for.

Thank you for your replys. I will look into a third party application solution.
