Note: in conjunction with new BY items discussed above, RPM has SET MAX..
options that correspond to each rate/second BY item above. These SET MAX...
values allow user control of normalization values so that displays can be tuned to
system and application performance characteristics of a particular environment.

DETAIL - displays additional stats such as node name, priority, accessorid, receive
queue length, and memory pages in use.

ENTRIES - displays the busiest processes either in all Cpus in a node, or the
busiest in each Cpu. Note ENTRIES can be abbreviated as E, and no space is
required, thus

P\*,E3,R6 is valid. Note the default value for ENTRIES is controlled

with the SET ENTRIES option.

ET | ETALL | ETPCT [ DATE ] - displays elapsed time and total CPU cycles
consumed for each process since it was started (as hhhhh:mm:ss).

ET shows CPU used and Elapsed time for 80-column wide devices.

ETPCT shows total CPU/ET=%ET and total Elapsed time over each
process life-time and is suitable for 80-column wide devices.

ETALL adds total CPU/ET=ET%, plus Cpu usage, plus Elapsed time
stats to the default PB output resulting in output suitable for
wide-screen devices (emulators with 120 chars/line or more).
The format of elapsed time data is in hours, minutes, secs and
is formatted as hhhhh:mm:ss (supporting ET's up to 11.4 years).

DATE shows date the PROCESS was launched instead of its ET.


LAST - causes stats to be displayed based on the requestors rate. The LAST option is
an adaptive rate. For example, if a requestor makes a request every 3 seconds, but then
starts making requests every 5 seconds, the PB command with a LAST option
automatically adapts to the requestors request rate. LAST means RPM should use the
stats counters from the LAST request for the new display. Display occurs once, with
calculations based on elapsed time between PB commands. See also SAME and
RATE.

NONULL - suppresses display of processes consuming less than %0.01 Cpu busy.

NORMAL - displays the default output: Time, Cpu, Pin, Busy, Name, Program. Note the
DETAIL option provides additional information.
