top with I/O informations

[deleted1403]

Hi,

on SUN Solaris is a top with I/O informations available (a customer told me ;-)

Does anybody know where to find this for hp-ux?

I searched at

hpux.connect.org.uk
hpux.asknet.de

but without result.

Thanks
Markus

We also have top command in HP Unix.

I feel glance plus is the best utility for this in HP Unix. Have a look at this link for details

Hi,

There is no I/O information on top. Use sar -d to see I/O stats.

Hi Markus,
As top command is to display and update information about the top processes on the system.
At the most you can find CPU information by few options like:
-p --> pset_id Show load averages and process state break down for system and processor set pset_id. Show only the processes running on the processor set pset_id. This option is supported only if the kernel supports processor sets functionality.

-P --> Adds column PSET before column CPU for individual CPU information. Adds columns PSET before column CPU for each process information. This option is supported only if the kernel supports processor sets functionality.

-w --> Show individual CPU information. By default, top does not display any individual CPU information. The user can toggle between individual process information and individual CPU information by using the w screen-control key. When used with the -h option, the -w option overrides the -h option.

but you can not use it for I/O information.
So,better suggest customer to go for glance or sar commands.

Why dont you go for Iostat command if you only want information related to I/O.

Refer following for more information:
1]top -->

2]iostat -->
