Dear
I am very much confused with the output of vmstat in
solaris 8 OS with 220R. Yesterday it was fine but
today when I run "vmstat" its showing something
negative with cpu like this in the cpu status..
# vmstat
procs memory page disk
   faults cpu
 r b w swap free re mf pi po fr de sr s6 sd sd --
  in sy cs us sy id
 0 0 0 2830864 175688 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 1 0
4294967196 0 0 -13 -21 -138

but when i try with schedule time...
# vmstat 2 5
procs memory page disk
   faults cpu
 r b w swap free re mf pi po fr de sr s6 sd sd --
  in sy cs us sy id
 0 0 0 2830864 175688 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 1 0
4294967196 0 0 -13 -21 -138
 0 0 0 2381168 156048 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

 823 2279 2276 0 6 94
 0 0 0 2381048 155928 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 829 2280 2273 0 6 94
 0 0 0 2381168 156048 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 827 2177 2278 0 6 94

Can you give some ideas or solution or reason why this
happening with vmstat in the cpu....

Thanks
