[INUG-Users] cpu usage and number of cpu's, unixy question

[Cohn, Jonathan C [IT]]

On my Solaris boxes I use 'mpstat' to get individual CPU's performance.  The 50% you saw  was an average of the two CPU's.

I think the SNMP mibs have both the average across all CPU's and individual CPU statistics available.

Subject: [INUG-Users] cpu usage and number of cpu's, unixy question

hi,

I wrote a test script to test high cpu usage. The script shows 50% cpu usage
on a sun box with 2 cpu's but on another box I used to test, which is
actually a solaris "zone" it shows 100%. Is there a way to predict what the
number will be so when I set ssm to monitor high cpu I set it to the right
number?

thanks

test script:


#!/usr/bin/perl
while (1) {

}
