    Hi,

    I have a question about monitoring cpu usage.

    1)
    Under micropartition,
    what is the most accurate tool or method to state cpu usage every minute?

    i.e
    vmstat? lparstat? or any other method or tool?

    2)
    Uner not micropartition,
    in this case what is the most accurate tool to represent cpu usage every minute?

    Thank you in advance.

    Regards.

    Have you looked at NMON?

    http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/aix/library/au-analyze_aix/index.html

    It's got an option for PURR stats (Processor Utilization Resource Register) which may help you.

    Best of all - it's free.
