Sorting CPU utilization per process

[Brian Brown_7]

What command can you use to sort the processes per CPU utilization from the
highest to the lowest in percent used?
The command on AIX is: ps gu
This will list out processes from highest to lowest on which ones are using the
most of the CPU time in percentage.

Thanks

Try "ps -el | sort -nr +5 | head" .
It will sort processes by the CPU usage, but not in percentage. If you really
want to use %, modify the output from 'ps' with -o option using %pcpu.

If you are using teh command interactively, then "top" will sort processes by
cpu utilization.

If your company wants to spend the money, the measureware/glance/perfview
openview product(s) are a great tool for performance tuning, process tracking,
etc. Call HP for a 60day demo to justify.
