How to deal with performance monitoring in AIX ?

To display top 10 highly utilized files under /var FSfind /var –xdev –ls|sort +6rn|head

 

To list the top ten users of paging space in IBM AIX:  svmon -Pgt 10

To list the top ten users of realmem in IBM AIX:   svmon -Put 10

To see the memory usage of that process:  svmon –p pid       

 

To display top 10 CPU-consuming processes: ps aux | head -1; ps aux | sort -rn +2 | head

 

To display top 10 memory-consuming processes: ps -ealf | head -1 ; ps -ealf | sort -rn +9 | head

 

To display processes in order of being penalized: ps -eakl | head -1 ; ps -eakl | sort -rn +5

 

To display processes in order of priority: ps -eakl | sort -n +6 | head

 

To display processes in order of time: ps vx | head -1 ; ps vx | grep -v PID | sort -rn +3 | head -10

 

To display processes in order of real memory use: ps vx | head -1 ; ps vx | grep -v PID | sort -rn +6 | head -10

 

To display processes in order of I/O: ps vx | head -1 ; ps vx | grep -v PID | sort -rn +4 | head -10

 

To determining the PID of wait processes: ps vg | head -1 ; ps vg | grep -w wait
