Re: [Xen-users] top result different with xentop

[Stephan Seitz <s.seitz@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

"top" only shows the load of the domain you're running it on. This could
be your dom0 as well as any of your domU's.
"xentop" shows the load of your running domains from the hypervisors
point of view. The hypervisor itself is not shown here (I assume it's
overhead can be ignored)

There have been discussions about oprofile for xen, but I don't know if
that was targetting the hypervisor or only the dom0. xen-devel should be
the list for kernel and hypervisor profiling questions ;)


btw. you might want to take a look at sysstat / iostat instead of top.

cheers,
Stephan
