System Performance issue

[RAVI S_1]

Hi all,

We have recently implemented one 2 node cluster in our client site. The two servers are HP9000/rp3440 with two CPUs on each server. In the production time We are facing the problem of Higher CPU Utilisation on one node in which application packages are running. Can you provide the tool or any script which is to monitor and analyse the performance of CPU Utilisation??

Advance thanks to all.....

the command sar will allow you to monitor cpu utilization

other tools
top command
glance

Any HP-UX box running a cluster should definitely have purchased Glance (also known as MeasureWare). At the very least, you can install a 60-day Trial version of Glance from any of your Applications CD's. Sar is really of limited value these days as it really offers little when detailed diagnostics are needed.

just curious... if you don't know of or have a tool to monitor cpu utilization, how did you determine that you have a problem with cpu utilization?

Hi Ravi,

You can use glance software for monitoring the system performance or use "top" command.

attached is the script for monitoring the system performance.

Since you have ServiceGuard you probably purchased the mission critical OE.

This OE includes Glance Plus pak which is the glance plus product for watching current system performance and a Measureware (now called Openview Performance Agent) which can collect performance data about your system. The measureware data can be viewed by using a command called extract or can generate alarms as SNMP Traps, OPC messages or can run OS command when data collected is above a threshold.

You need to install both glance and measureware and get license keys for the products for permanent use.

Just a note.... If you purchase MCOE (Mission critical OE) then you do NOT need extra license keys. All software is already bundled in with the OS, and was probably installed when HP-UX was initially installed on the system, and extra keys to "enable" it are not required.

I got a solution for performance issue on my m/c by scripts and tools
thanks to all
