We've been using sar to supply us with statistics

Does any body know how load averages (as reported by uptime)
are computed?

Can anybody please tell me what files in the /proc filesystem
Solaris uses for load averages?  (For linux, it's /proc/loadav)

Cheers,
Mike

Betreff: Load Monitoring tool


Hi

We are going to perform a losd test on our web based
application. The middle tier and DB servers are unix
based. And we are looking for a tool which can help us
to monitor some performance counters while we give a
load to the application. Example for performance
counters we would like to monitor are

i.  CPU utilization
ii. Physical disk activity
iii.Memory Activity

The tool could be in two categories.

1. A tool which can monitor the performance counters  

   while generating the load ..
2. Or a tool which only monitor the performance 
   counters while we generate the load through some 
   other tool ...

If anyone is aware of a free tool please guide us..

Thx in advance

Shafeen
