Question on top command output in solaris

Platform : Solaris 5.10
In the top output, if you look at the CPU colum, you can see that one process (2415) is consuming 95.84 % of CPU, another process (28533) is consuming 91.81%. How can this happen ? If one process is consuming 95.84 , then less 5% of CPU is available to all other processes . Right?
load averages:  4.24,  4.02,  3.89;                    up 57+10:17:11     14:36:35
252 processes: 245 sleeping, 1 zombie, 6 on cpu

I think you are right. This machine has 8 CPUs and there are 15 lines in the output . May be each line in the top result is for each core.

  • Does "top" command work in Solaris?

    Does "top" command work in solaris?

    Edited by: user11936985 on Aug 29, 2011 8:44 AM

    Top has two sections, the summary information at the top of the screen which gives load averages, process counts, etc. and a bottom section which lists the "top processes". The prstat command standard report is similar to the bottom section of top. So if that is what you need, then prstat is an adequate substitute. It doesn't report the information in top's summary section. On the other hand, prstat is actually a much more powerful tool than top, especially is you use some of the other options. For example, "prstat -a" gives you the "top process" report plus a summary report of usage by user. If you use "prstat -J" you get a top process report with a summary by project and "prstat -Z" gives a top process report with a summary by zone. You can use options like -v or -m to get more information on each process in the "top process" section. There are other options mentioned in the manual page.
    Top works and works well on Solaris. You can get a copy form sunfreeware and probably other sources as well. It doesn't come from Oracle with Solaris 10 (but does come with Solaris 11). If you're a Linux shop you might want it because it is familiar. However, you may want to look at prstat as well because it can provide some useful information that top does not.

    Hi, this doest look too good... " Swap: 8191992k total, 160k used"
    this means you'r using some of you'r swap, "25708k buffers" and not becouse of you'r buffers.
    try using ps -ef or top ( and sort by memory by hitting "m" ) and search for the process that uses you'r memory.

  • What is %IOWAIT of CPU states in TOP command output

    What is "% iowait" in CPU States in Solaris? See below output it shows 11.2 % of CPU was used for IO.
    Is CPU used in IO as well? If yes how?
    last pid: 15598; load averages: 3.66, 3.39, 3.07 18:33:27
    292 processes: 283 sleeping, 1 running, 5 zombie, 3 on cpu

    Memory: 16G real, 8029M free, 5425M swap in use, 19G swap free
    PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME CPU COMMAND

    The value of %iowait is relatively semi-meaningless these days and as a result we removed it from Solaris 10 onwards. The parameter is still displayed in certain commands but it will always be zero.
    System Administration Commands                         iostat(1M)
         wt        the I/O wait time is no  longer  calculated  as  a
                   percentage  of  CPU  time, and this statistic will
                   always return zero.Which means top will also show zero, eg:

  • Output of "top" command

    i can't understand the CPU usage in top command. even the man page does not describe the necessary options. here is what i have from the "top":
    Cpu(s):  3.7%us,  1.0%sy,  0.0%ni, 95.3%id,  0.0%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.0%si,  0.0%st
    how will i know which option represents the CPU  in use and which represents free CPU ?  (i mean the meanings of us, wa, id and sy )
    also, what is the difference between VIRT, RES  and SHR memories. which one represents RAM ?

    us is processor time used by userspace processes, sy by kernel, ni by niced processes, id means idle, wa denotes waiting for I/O, hi and si are hard/soft interrupts.
    Read "man top" for VIRT etc. descriptions.

  • Command output redirect question

    Hi guys,
    I am putting in a kron function to transfer the command output from all the switches and routers on our network to a tftp server.
    I have the kron occurence and policy lists set up the way I want them and have tested the redirection of the command line output to the server.
    The problem I have is that I want to back up the switches 3 or 4 times once a week to compare the configs to make sure that no unwanted changes are being made over the course of the month.
    Is there a way to use a variable to change the file name when it redirects? Currently when the occurence runs the file modified time on the tftp server changes but the output doesnt append as I had hoped it would, i.e one file having the config copy in to the file over and over.
    Thanks for your help

    You might want to consider the built-in Config Archive feature instead of kron.  With Config Archive, you can periodically take backups of your config (even to a network server), and you can adjust the filenames using either date or hostname (or both).  Check out the documentation at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_3t/12_3t7/feature/guide/gtrollbk.html#wp1100253 for more details.
    In addition to Config Archive, you also have the option of going with the Embedded Event Manager.  EEM also has a cron feature which will allow you to run CLI commands periodically.  Depending on your IOS version, it may be possible to do what you want using a simple EEM applet, or you might have to use a Tcl script policy.  More on EEM can be found at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/netmgmt/configuration/guide/nm_eem_overview_ps10592_TSD_Products_Configuration_Guide_Chapter.html .
    All that said, most TFTP servers have a security requirement that a file must exist on the server before one can write to it.  Therefore, if you try and create new files (i.e. a new file each day), the TFTP server may reject the WRITE REQUEST unless a file with that name already exists.  In light of that, you may need to use something like SCP or FTP instead.

  • How to create shell script on solaris "TOP" command

    Hi All,
    i need to write a shell script on unix top command.
    Requirement:
    In top command grep the more than 25% CPU utilization f60webmx process and that f60webmx process time stamp is more than 3HR's and also needs to grep the load average information in top command.
    Please help me some one.

    i need to write a shell script on unix top command.You have our permission to begin to do that.
    These forums are NOT for doing your work for you. They are here to provide assistance for YOUR work.
    I suggest you go get paper and pencil and write down all the steps you think you need to take to accomplish that. Write it down as if you were going to do that manually at the command prompt. Then put it all into a text file and save it with a file name of your script.
    When you have that "script", you can run it and examine whether it succeeds or whether it has errors. Work at it for a while and fix whatever errors might happen.
    When you are really, really stuck at it, you can paste your script into a reply of this thread and maybe someone will respond with suggestions for improvement.

  • Top utility installation in Solaris 10

    Hello I've a SB 150 with Solaris 10 loaded. I tried to install top utility using pkgadd command and it showed that the package was added successfully. Following is the package name that I installed:
    top-3.5.1-sol25-sparc-local
    After this I have rebooted the server also. But when I type top in the terminal it gives the following output:
    bash-3.00# top
    bash: top: command not foundMy question is any further steps required to configure this utility.
    Thanking you all in advance.
    Thanks and Regards
    Britto Sidhan

    any just for the sake of it, i've never seen a problem in Solaris that was solved by rebooting the server, futher more the name you posted indicates that you installed a version of top which was configured for Solaris 2.5.
    Even though a Solaris 2.5 top should work under Solaris 10, it might be advisable to find a more recent top, if not else Solaris 10/SPARC is 64 bit and 2.5 was only 32 bits, and its also a much much much more advanced OS than 2.5 was.

    a short and correct answer would be: you can't.
    As oracle uses a fair amount of shared memory, and that shared memory is attached to most of the oracle processes, the same memory appears a number of times.
    you should rephrase your question / what is it you want to achieve?
    you can ask oracle how much memory is assigned to it, v$sga, v$sgastat, v$process (for PGA). moreover, you as DBA are the one who configured that.
    you can look at major an minor faults per process to see what is causing the paging (if you have any).
    you can also look at the /proc/pid/statm pseudofilesystem for your oracle pids.

    Total RAM as seen from top command is 12G.
    *2569836* - Total RAM which is being used currently .
    How can I see the total RAM used by all Oracle Processes running in this server. The server is Linux X86 64 Bit. Can I sum up the values under 'VIRT' column of 'top' command to see the total RAM used ?
    Is there a way to see the total RAM and CPU used by Oracle from top ?
    'VIRT' is the virtual memory - In what way is this related to the figure above, which is the physical memory (RAM) ?
    Thanks in Advance

    Oracle used shared memory to implement the SGA, which constituted the largest memory consumption of the Oracle instance. The problem is that in many modern OS, including linux, it is hard to define the actual memory usage fo a software. This is because the memory used by a process is actually composed of shared (e.g., shared memory, shared library, executable code) and private (e.g., the heap, the stack) components. Utilities like top, ps, etc reports all memory visible by a process, disregarding whether it is shared or not. As a result, the total of VIRT etc will be inflated by the shared components. For a more accurate figure of memory usage, shared memory / library / code should be counted once.
    Before 11g, Oracle used System V ipc, and the amount of memory allocated can be checked using ipcs. In 11g, Oracle switched to /dev/shm, use df to check the memory allocation. (Thanks user11150436)
    The "Mem used" figure in top is the actual usage of the memory: shared memory and library are not multi-counted. However, Linux will always cache (read before actually requested) and buffer (write after signalling completion) disk I/O. Therefore, "Mem used" is almost always very close to the amount of physical memory. "Mem used" - "buffers" - "cached" reflects the memory actually used by the OS and all programs more accuately.
    And you can use the pmap utility to check the memory map. Then you classify the sharable and unsharable memory usage to calculate a more accurate result suiting your need. You need OS knowledge to understand the output.

  • How to find the contents of proc from top command

    I had a doubt related to how to find the contents of a procedure or the statements from the PID displayed in top command if it can be done from TOAD or
    sqlplus. If we can find out the details from top like:-
    21211 oracle 16 0 3228 1012 764 R 0 0.0 0:07.68 top
    1 root 16 0 1732 552 472 S 0 0.0 0:01.29 init
    say, what is the process with PID 21211 and 1 are doing?
    I hope, my question is clear.
    Please, help in solving the doubt.
    regards

  • How to install TOP command

    Can anyone guide me how to install TOP command in solaris 10, 64bit OS?
    thanks

    top is not a native Solaris command but the Solaris 10 3.5.1 top package is available for SPARC & X86 on:
    http://sunfreeware.com/
    It may also be on one of your numerous Solaris 10 CD's. Which one? I haven't a clue.
