AIX nmon Recipe

1. Run nmon in the background with a 60 second interval:

   nohup nmon -fT -s 60 -c 1000000 && sleep 1 && cat nohup.out

2. Check for any errors running the above commands in your terminal.
3. Reproduce the problem.
4. To stop collection, kill the nmon process. For example:

   ps -elf | grep nmon | grep -v grep | awk '{print $4}' | xargs kill -USR2

5. Upload $HOST_$STARTDAY_$STARTTIME.nmon and nohup.out

For background, see AIX nmon.
