Good Day

You can try the following commands: -
sar -r 2 5 (many variations)
vmstat 2 (this is brilliant for memory/cpu availability
mpstat
prstat (Solaris8 only, real time active processes)
iostat

Check man pages for details, ie "man prstat"

In Solaris 8 or above, top is included on the "Software Companion" CD. Once isntalled, you should find it in the /opt/sfw/bin directory.
