James,
What box are we talking about here, architecture and OS/version.
I know that Top doesn't run accurately for certain bits iowait being the most common one on Solaris 10 anymore due to changes in the underlying structures it uses.
Regards,
Mike

Hi,
I've asked this several times, but I really have not received
a good answer. Hobbit doesn't really seem to monitor cpu
utilization correctly.
For example, I can look at the load, login to the box, and then
run top. Top shows that cpu utilization is at 100%, 0% idle time.
However, the "trends" utilization graph shows 20% cpu utilization.
Can someone tell me why?
Thanks....James
