Shalom,

iostat check input/output and CPU use.

Might I suggest a look at the man page?

What options I'd recommend depend on the nature of the problem.

Here are some general links:

Hello:

Check if your server comes with Glance installed:

swlist -l product Glance

It's a graphical tool for monitor performance.

use sar command to check the cpu utilisation, vmstat to check the memory utilisation, 'sar -d' command to check disk utilisation. iostat also can be used to check the i/o utilisation.
