C-Series, E-Series
Syntax
show processes cpu [cp | rp1 | rp2] [lp [linecard-number [1-99]
| all | summary]
Parameters
cp (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword cp to view CPU usage of the control
processor.
rp1 (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword rp1 to view CPU usage of the Route
Processor 1.
NOTE: This option is supported on the E-Series only.
rp2 (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword rp2 to view CPU usage of the Route
Processor 2.
lp
linecard
[
1-99
] (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword lp followed by the line card number
to display the CPU usage of that line card.
The optional 1-99 variable sets the number of tasks to display in
order of the highest CPU usage in the past five (5) seconds.
lp all (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword lp all to view CPU utilization on all
active line cards.
lp summary (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword lp summary to view a summary of the
line card CPU utilization.
Command Modes
• EXEC
• EXEC Privilege
Command History
Version 7.5.1.0 Introduced on the C-Series.
Version 7.4.1.0 Added the lp all option.
Version 6.5.1.0 The granularity of the output for rp1 and rp2 is changed. The output
is at the process level so process-specific statistics are displayed.
Usage
Information
In the example below, the CPU utilization for the last five seconds is 4%/2%. The first number
(4%) is the CPU utilization for the last five seconds. The second number (2%) indicates the
percent of CPU time spent at the interrupt level.
