THANK YOU to all the responses.
I did not think about the BSD style ps command in /usr/ucb/ps
about 50 replies suggested I use some variation of:
/usr/ucb/ps -auxgwwwr | head -15
Or some variation with fewer w's, missing some of the other options (the
aux is needed), using more in stead of head, and it seems the "-" before
the aux bit is optional.
The other very useful option is:
ps -efo pcpu,pid,args | sort -nr | head
Quite a few variations on this one as well.
Some people asked why not isntall top? The answer: This is on a strictly
Change Controll Managed Produciton system and I can not take chances with
my 99.999% uptime.
Lastly:
It seems solaris8 has got a built in tool, namely sdtprocess, and sun has
got an optional extra tool named prstat.
Thanx,
_Johan
