    Hello,

    Top command shows overall details. use other command to get in to more deep to know which proccess is using more memory cpu

    Use ps -ux Displays running processes, with CPU/Memory usage


    ps -x Displays processes your running


    ps -a Displays all processes running

    kill <pid> Kills a process

    Hello doga,

    thanks for the reply.. but i know all that, i am a almost a decade on linux systems.. ;-)

    The problem is that all running processes report using 0.0% CPU and 0.0% memory, server load is also 0.0% in general if i "uptime" or "top" to see that..

    Any more suggestions, thanks
