I will do Maintenance for my Servers ... pls help

Dear All,

My manager asked me to make full maintenance for my Sun Servers , to improve the performance. What do suggest ? what is the major things I have to do ? with some details pls because I am new admin for the System.

(currently we don't have any errors or any problem in the system but this will be normal maintenance)

Regards

look for the normal things.... errors in /var/adm/messages; how full are the filesystems (df -k). what kind of performance are you asking for? network, filesystem or something other?

Thank you for ur fast reply , I am looking for performance in CPU utilization & Mem & filesystem .

Regards

Try the prstat command..
Type man prstat to see what flags are available

You might also want to use vmstat for swap and mem info.

For filesystem usage info use df and use iostat for disk perf info

sar is also very handy

you can also try out using top. its similar to prstat, nice and easy.

top is not included in solaris default installations (afaik) but it can be downloaded from sunfreeware.com...
