Re: top command truncates output

[Yong Huang <yong321@xxxxxxxxx>]

Rav,

`ps' command gives you cumultive CPU time since process startup. You want the
delta between two samplings. `top' is the ideal command for this unless you
want to roll your own. By "truncate the output", do you mean you want to see a
more complete command line? Pass -c to top. In fact, I always type `top -c'
while others just type `top'. In order to record the output to a file, run it
in batch mode with -b. To get a longer line size, set COLUMNS environment
variable. In my Oracle-Linux Perfmon
(http://yong321.freeshell.org/computer/Perfmon.html), I use this command:
COLUMNS=132 top -cb

132 is the total line size, not just the command part.
