Hello list,

The third line of information from top now has a steal percentage.  For
example, in RHEL4 the third line was:
  Cpu(s):  0.0% us,  0.0% sy,  0.0% ni, 100.0% id,  0.0% wa,  0.0% hi,
0.0% si

Now in RHEL5, I see a new field, "st":
  Cpu(s):  0.1%us,  0.5%sy,  0.8%ni, 96.8%id,  0.2%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.0%si,
1.5%st

As I understand it, this value is the steal percentage, or how much CPU
z/VM is "stealing".

My question is, does this also work on other architectures? I don't have
an Intel box with RHEL5 - does that new value show up?  And, if you are
running VMware or other hipervisor technology, will it also show non-zero
(i.e. does it also work?)

Thanks.
