vmstat cpu stats never change.

vmstat seems to work for memory usage but for us,sy and id it always 100 0 100. Is something getting screwed up because of multiple processors?

Re: vmstat cpu stats never change.

Shalom,

Its not due to multiple processors.

Try swapinfo -tam
Wait 15 minutes
Run some more processes
Try again

Hopefully it will change. You might want to check the itrc patch database for patches for vmstat.
