You can check for top memory consuming processes by issuing the following comman ds: svmon -Put

5 I use the following ps commands in order to check for performance probelms: 1) Displaying top CPU_consuming processes: ps aux head -1; ps aux sort -rn +2 head -10

2) Displaying top 10 memory-sonsuming processes: ps aux head -1; ps aux sort -rn +3 head

3) Displaying process in order of being penalized: ps -eakl head -1; ps -eakl sort -rn +5

4) Displaying process in order of priority: ps -eakl sort -n +6 head

5) Displaying process in order of nice value ps -eakl sort -n +7

6) Displaying the process in order of time ps vx head -1;ps vx grep -v PID sort -rn +3 head -10

7) Displaying the process in order of real memory use ps vx head -1; ps vx grep -v PID sort -rn +6 head -10

8) Displaying the process in order of I/O ps vx head -1; ps vx grep -v PID sort -rn +4 head -10

9) Displaying WLM classes ps -a -o pid, user, class, pcpu, pmem, args 10) Determinimg process ID of wait processes: ps vg head -1; ps vg grep -w wait

11) Wait process bound to CPU ps -mo THREAD -p <PID>
