Hi folks, I'm running SUSE 9 on a k6-2 with kernel 2.4.21-144. When I run top I get a CPU consumption of ~10%. This is pretty consistent. vmstat reports ~5-7%. UCD-SNMP reports 37-51% and a demo version of OpenView Performance Agent reports similar. The sum of the processes supports the values reported by top and vmstat, so why are the UCD-SNMP and OVPA values so wrong? And why do they seem to agree? Thanks in advance, Dave
