EnderUNIX tipsMail to My Friend , Home Page[ Console ] "PARSING AT THE TOP" - Ülkü SAYILAN - (2005-02-01 15:27:16) [3221] Here's a little something that I find useful.... while true do top -d 2 | col -b | grep states sleep 300 done Where -d 2 displays two screens of top, col -b strips the dodgy control characters out of the screens and grep states grabs the only bit that was of interest. Output is as follows - CPU states: 90.4% idle, 4.1% user, 5.5% kernel, 0.0% iowait, 0.0% swap CPU states: 94.6% idle, 1.6% user, 3.5% kernel, 0.4% iowait, 0.0% swap This way, you're not running top all the time and you get the cpu info you need that xload and uptime don't tell you. It works on Solaris 2.6 and I suspect it will work on most other UNIX platforms. Mail to My Friend , Home Page |
