Re: ps

Hi

As far as I know ps wont show you the memory and CPU utilization. Try top instead.

Re: ps

# ps -fl

will show the most, but you can fine-tune with

# env UNIX95=1 ps -o....

see 'man ps'

Re: ps

The best approach should be using glance for monitoring the utilization.

you can also use

for memory usage

#UNIX95= ps -e -o ruser,vsz=Kbytes|sort -nkr2|head -30

For processor usage

#UNIX95= ps -e -o ruser,pcpu,comm|sort -nkr2|head -30
