Sorry I'm accessing via a web link and it does not show any screen numbers.
But when I first get in I see a screen that has lots of options. Under General System Data I select 1. CPU Load and trans. The top of this screen says; General CPU Load and User Transactions Below that are loads of items. Also I can toggle between CURRENT (this minute) and Average( now 8:11am to 12:43pm now). At this time for average I have 41% or 42% for each processor (IFL) And max CPU% is 286 for one system.. -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Boyes Sent: Monday, December 08, 2008 12:38 PM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: vm performance tool kit On 12/8/08 12:13 PM, "Ayer, Paul W" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: If this is screen FCX100 (see top left corner of screen): > It shows the four IFL type processors > PROC %cpu > ---- ----- > P00 3 > P01 4 > P02 3 > P03 4 This is the average CPU utilization for each processor during the last measurement interval. > User Extremes showed a system > Max %CPU 3.0 > > So what does that tell me? There should be a userid in that field, too. What that field tells you in this example is that that userid had a peak 3.0% of the available 400% during the last interval, and that that userid used the most CPU capacity during the last interval. > Now I have; > PROC %CPU > ---- ----- > P00 83 > P01 83 > P02 83 > P03 81 > > User Extreme now shows a system that has > Max %CPU 263 OK. So the physical CPU units are averaging about 80% each (the breakdown of how much is system, how much is user is the remainder of each line, see %SYS and %SP, etc). The userid listed in the User Extreme Max CPU% is using a peak 263% of the 400% available across all 4 CPUs. We don't know what it was doing during that period from that screen, but it's using about 2.6 processors worth of work. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
