Steal % in top - s390x only?
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.
