[Sunhelp] hi!!!

Hi,

Pls. use the following command to identify which process is consuming more
CPU/Mem resources:

/usr/ucb/ps -aux

Then you can kill the process or renice the priority of the process.

By the way, the following commands can help you identify the disk
bottleneck:
iostat -xdc 20 (Pls. note the %b and svc_t coloums)

Hope it can helps.

Regards.
John

Hi Friends!!!

I am new to solaris admin & nowadays i am facing a problem which i am not
able to know how to resolve it.
Frequently i am getting calls frm users that the servers r running very slow
& i am not able to diagnose the fault. I have checked that the swap space
allocated is suffiecient..... so where do i go frm here?
Someone told me that i shd use vmstat, iostat & sar commands, and for that i
have gone thru their man pages but found huge descriptions for it, leaving
me more confused. Can anyone please suggest what syntax is to be used with
these commands, and what guys generally use & what conclusions can one draw
from them, regarding the system performance.

Thanking ua'll in advance......

Shivraj
