Using dtrace how can we get the functionality of prstat ,vmstat

Hi,
I would like to know what probes can be used to generate a dtrace (.d) script which could produce the output of prstat,vmstat etc.I cannot use these commands at the command prompt directly to know my system's behavior.Can any one here help me out to get this thing realized.I have stiff deadlines to meet .....and i am behind them already...
Thanking for your support in advance.

There's probably not an exact equivalent. I'd start with the 'dtrace toolkit' and see if there's something in there that meets your needs.
But it's not designed to replace tools that already work well. Why would you be able to use dtrace and not vmstat?

  • How can I get the functionality of the old "Spaces" in Mission Control?

    How can I make Lion show a space number on the top of the screen so I can see which space I am in?
    How can I make Lion switch spaces in a ring? ie? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3,  ...
    How can I make lion switch directly to a numbered space?  ie: 1, 4, 5, 2, etc...
    Without these three capabilities Mission Control is a giant step backward....I am disappointed in the way it works and would liketo know how to disable it and give me back the way spaces used to work.
    Thank you.

    Currently you cannot.

    You cannot organise Mission Control's "Desktops" this way. They are organised in a single row to allow the swipe gestures to work. Apple allows no way to customise this.

    By deafult you should be able toi switch by pressing ctrl plus the desktop number, e.g. ctrl+1. This is the same as Spaces in Snow Leopard. You can customise this under System Preferences (Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts > Mission Control).

    A lot of people are disapointed with Mission Control. In my opinion it's a step backwards from Spaces & Expose in Snow Leopard but peoples views on this will depend if they used Spaces & Expose in Leopard/Snow Leopard and the type of Mac they are using - it makes some sense on a Macbook Air, for example, with a small screen and multi-touch trackpad but not so much on an iMac or Mac Pro (sames goes for Launchpad). I just hope Apple listens to the criticism and enables customisation options to change the way Mission Control behaves.

  • How can I get the function of dictation in my Mac 10.6.8 without buying dragon?

    I want to have the function of dictation in my Mac 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.  I read that if I upgrade to ML I can have it, but it will not allow some softwares to work. Dragon is too expensive, so any other ideas??? 
    Thanks!!!

    There is no dictation facility built into Snow Leopard so you would have to obtain a third-party program; Dragon Dictate is the best known - I don't know if there even are any others; you could try Google.

  • Apple ID email is no longer in use.  How can I get the verification email sent somewhere else?

    I have multiple Apple ID's.  One of which is an email address for a company I no longer work for.  I want to download all my music into the cloud, but can't verify the ID with that email.  Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    more than likely that app was downloaded using that apple id.. unless you know the password, you will not be able to update.. delete the app and re-download using your new apple id

  • How can we get the image which is stored in clipboard by labview, is there any functions available like text from clip board

    How can we get the image which is stored in clipboard by labview, i can get the text in clipboard by using invoke node directly.but i cannot get the image, is there any functions or vi available.(image is in Png format)

    The Read from Clipboard method is, unfortunately, limited to text. If the clipboard contains an image then you need to use OS-specific functions calls. This is an example program for Windows. It's old, but it should still work.

  • I just installed Readdledocs on my ipod, and now when I launch the app, I get a screen which says "downloading message" and the app freezes and won't do anything else.  How can I get the app to function again?

    I just installed Readdledocs on my ipod, and now when I launch the app, I get a screen which says "downloading message" and the app freezes and won't do anything else.  How can I get the app to function again?
    This happened after I tried to get Readdledocs to open an epub file which I created in Calibre.

    This is a followup to my own posting above.
    Thanks to Dave Sawyer for posting information about re-downloading an app which has been deleted.  I deleted the app from iTunes.  Then, when I synched, iTunes asked me if I wanted the items on my ipod touch copied back into iTunes.  I said yes and then synched.
    Readdledocs is now working again.  It is no longer frozen.  However, I have learned my lesson.  I will download only pdf's from now on.  I don't think it works so well with epub files.  The text reflow feature of Readdledocs is exactly what I need to use for my work documents on my ipod touch.

  • How Can I Get the Amount of Free Disk Space Using space using windows 7 please share example using GetDiskSpace

    How Can I Get the Amount of Free Disk Space  using windows 7 please share example using GetDiskSpace i have already studied http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/9958B8E473C4EF1786256BBC0053B64F

    Reading your question a bit more in detail, I doubt whether you are using Win32 API GetDiskFreeSpace function (for which my previous post is the solution) of Programmer's Toolbox GetDiskSpace function.
    With reference to the second one, it works even with disks larger than 2GB but you need to use the proper formatting code to display the returned value. I updated my example to show total free space in the debug output window and added a comparison with 3GB value using UInt64TypeCompareUInt from the Programmer's Toolbox.

  • How can I get the 23 July update to load onto my iPad. I haven't been able to access my documents or work for weeks and need to use it. Has anyone else had similar problems?

    How can I get the 23 July update to load onto my iPad. I haven't been able to access my documents or work for weeks and need to use it. Has anyone else had similar problems?

    Hello Arthur,
    Thank you for the reply.
    You were correct that deleting the app and reinstalling it was the only thing to make it work but unfortunately I lost all the documents I made, even though they were backed up to iCloud before i deleted the app. At the same time as deleting pages I had to delete keynote and numbers too, so I've lost all the documents in them too.
    The mb of data which was assigned to each programme in iCloud has reduced, so. I guess they are gone for good. Is there any other way to reaccess them?
    Not your fault but I am a bit fed up the the iPad. I have lost work that I've done and have no other copy apart from what was in iCloud, as I don't have a printer and couldn't email them too myself as I couldn't get into the programme and  i've also got episodes of tv series I purchased that I can't download and albums that are half downloaded with songs missing, so I feel a bit swindled out of time and money and am going back to DVD ,  pen and paper and CDs .
    Instead of using iCloud I guess the only way to make sure I don't loose any more documents it to email them to myself each time I save them on the iPad. Is there anything else you could suggest please?
    I don't have any other apple products apart from iPods, so I can't access the iCloud on anything else can I?
    Thanks

    Read another post in the forum about this and it appears this app also installs a profile with a proxy service that you will have to try and delete as well. Check that out.

    Hello mrmacjohn,
    Verifying that any iCloud account that may be signed in is signed out should resolve this error.
    On your Mac, open iCloud preferences, then click Sign Out.

  • I am using 3.6. How can I get the update to look just like this version? I truly don't want to use IE or MSN but if that is all I have, then let me know. Thanks

    I am using 3.6 because I like how it spreads out my toolbars instead of just giving me the bookmarks in the corner and the lonesome firefox in the opposite corner. I know I can open the bookmark toolbar but it is not the same. I want the file, edit, view, history, bookmarks, tools, help toolbar across. How can I get the new firefox to do that

    This should duplicate the image that you posted as your preferred appearance for Firefox 5 in the above (request to be LOCKED) duplicate thread.
    '''Menu Bar'''<br />
    *right-click empty space at the end of the Tab Bar, click "Menu Bar" to place a checkmark
    *Menu Bar checked = Menu Bar on; Firefox button off
    *Menu Bar un-checked = Menu Bar off; Firefox button on
    *Other methods of doing the same:
    **click Firefox button > Options, click Menu Bar
    **Quick toggle Menu Bar on/off: ALT+V+T+M
    '''Tabs on Top'''<br />
    *right-click empty space at the end of the Tab Bar, click "Tabs on Top" to remove the checkmark
    *Tabs on Top checked = Tabs above toolbars
    *Tabs on Top un-checked = Tabs below toolbars
    *Other methods of doing the same:
    **click Firefox button > Options, click Tabs on Top
    **Quick toggle Tabs on Top on/off: ALT+V+T+T
    '''Separate Reload / Stop buttons and position of Home button'''<br />
    *Open the Customize window; do one of the following:
    **right-click the empty space at the end of the Tab bar, choose "Customize"
    **click Firefox button > Options > Toolbar Layout
    **if using the Menu Bar, click View > Toobars, click Customize
    **Quick open Customize window: ATL+V+T+C
    *the Reload and Stop buttons will be shown separate between the URL/Location bar and the Search Bar. While the Customize window is open, do one of the following, to keep the buttons separate:
    **drag the Stop button to the left of the Reload button
    **drag a "Space" between the Reload and Stop buttons
    **drag one or both buttons anywhere on the Navigation bar separated by a "Space" or another icon or reverse the order to Stop-Reload to keep them separate

  • I downloaded some albums using my iphone, i then synced it with my PC. Now all the album artwork has gone from the songs i downloaded on my iphone, but not on the itunes on the pc. How can i get the artwork back on my iphone?

    I downloaded some albums using my iphone (3GS), I then synced it with my PC. Now all the album artwork has disappeared off my iphone but not off itunes on the PC. How can I get the album artwork back onto my iphone?

    I had the similar problem last night and found a solution (although it takes more than a few clicks).  Highlight all the album tracks in itunes on the pc and right click "get info". Check the artwork box in this window.  I found that the now playing art was showing up in the itunes window, but on songs that were missing artwork showed nothing in the get info box.  When I replaced the artwork by using the artwork command, or manually adding it into the "get info" window.  It was annoying but my iphone updated every album.
