Hi,
 
Thanks for the many replies.  In summary :
 
Solaris 8 and above provides prstat as standard.

Otherwise download top from www.sunfreeware.com
(but it appears that the top that's downloaded can't
 be run directly - may need to be compiled/linked)
 
prstat -s cpu -n 5
means sort the processes by CPU utlization
for the top 5 CPU consuming processes.
 
 
Thanks

Hi,

If anyone can point me to a website that has a binary form of
"top", will appreciate it. Otherwise if you can download it from
your Solaris 8 server & email it to me, will appreciate it as I
need this quickly to troubleshoot our SunFire V120 which has
been hogged for the last 1-2 days.

BTW, is there any command that we can use to find out
which daemon/process is chewing the CPU without the use
of top utility

Thanks in advance
