Translating with DrWatson… this can take a few seconds the first time.
This is a genuine, complex translation. DrWatson protects commands, error codes, and log output while naturally translating the surrounding text. It’s translated once and saved.

Hello informix pros,
I'm a unix systems administrator looking at a performance problem on a
machine whose only function in life is to run a version 7.2 informix
database. CPU utilization on the box is almost always 100% with user
time being around 90%, all of it is from oninit. There is no paging,
minimal disk activity and minimal user activity. The hardware is an IBM
SP2 wide node running aix4.1.4.
After looking at the output of various onstat commands I found something
that looks somewhat strange to me. I run a onstat -g tpf with the
thread id and see the following:
Thread profiles
tid lkreqs lkw dl to lgrs isrd iswr isrw isdl isct isrb lx bfr bfw lsus
lsmx seq
66 1630372676 34 0 0 7797 3381784 865 867 0 1732 0 0
521007501 3968 0 5992 79390
I guess my question is what do these headings mean and could this be the
cause of my CPU problem. There are actually a couple of these threads
on the system. Using other onstat commands I tracked them back to
processes running on the unix machine. The unix processes themselves
use very little CPU.
Any other suggestions of things to look at would be appreciated. Thanks
for taking the time to look at this.
