Hi Francesco

What does this command do? Let us know and we can then provide you an alternative on HP-UX.

Best regards - Keith

Hi Francesco,

mpstat solaris ?

mpstat - report per-processor statistics

# sar -M 5 5

or the top command.

Hope this helps,

Re: mpstat

the _best_ thing to use is glance, which is an add-on product.

after that would be top.

BTW, in conjunction with my Solaris netperf activities, it has become clear that the CPU stats reported by mpstat (pre Solaris 10 at least) are _statistical_ and will _not_ include time spent servicing interrupts. That can mean a rather non-trivial under-reporting of CPU util.

Glance on HP-UX will use non-statistical data for CPU utilization and will include the interrupt time.
