Fields

Field nameExplanation
CPU %CPU usage (%).
This is also the average value of the percentage for each processor (for AIX V6.1 or later, it includes processors after logical partitioning by the Micro-Partitioning function).

Free Swap %Percentage of available swap area size (megabytes) (%).
Kernel CPU %Percentage of operation time in kernel mode (%).
This is also the average value of the percentage for each processor (for AIX V6.1 or later, it includes processors after logical partitioning by the Micro-Partitioning function).
Logical I/O OpsNumber of times logical I/O processing occurred.
To display an I/O Activity - Top 10 Processes report, click this field.
Major Faults/secFrequency of page faults that invoked physical I/O (number of times per second).
To display a Major Page Faults - Top 10 Processes report, click this field.
Minor Faults/secFrequency of page faults that did not invoke physical I/O (number of times per second).
NFS Client Total Bad OpsTotal number of times processing failed on the NFS client.
NFS Server Total Bad OpsTotal number of times processing failed on the NFS server.
Physical I/O OpsNumber of times physical I/O processing occurred.
