nmon是一款分析 AIX 和 Linux 性能的免费工具
nmon 工具还可以将相同的数据捕获到一个文本文件,便于以后对报告进行分析和绘制图形。输出文件采用电子表格的格式 (.csv)。
性能介绍
nmon 工具可以为 AIX 和 Linux 性能专家提供监视和分析性能数据的功能,其中包括:
- CPU 使用率
- 内存使用情况
- 内核统计信息和运行队列信息
- 磁盘 I/O 速度、传输和读/写比率
- 文件系统中的可用空间
- 磁盘适配器
- 网络 I/O 速度、传输和读/写比率
- 页面空间和页面速度
- CPU 和 AIX 规范
- 消耗资源最多的进程
- IBM HTTP Web 缓存
- 用户自定义的磁盘组
- 计算机详细信息和资源
- 异步 I/O,仅适用于 AIX
- 工作负载管理器 (WLM),仅适用于 AIX
- IBM TotalStorage® Enterprise Storage Server® (ESS) 磁盘,仅适用于 AIX
- 网络文件系统 (NFS)
- 动态 LPAR (DLPAR) 更改,仅适用于面向 AIX 或 Linux 的 pSeries p5 和 OpenPower
还包括一个用来从 nmon 的输出生成图形并创建可以在 Web 站点显示的 .gif文件的新工具。
工具运行
安装
- 将 nmonXXX.tar.Z 文件复制到计算机。如果使用 FTP,请记住使用二进制模式。注意:示例中的 XXX 由实际的版本代替。
- 要解压该文件,可以运行 uncompress nmonXX.tar.Z。
- 要提取该文件,可以运行 tar xvf nmonXX.tar。
- 阅读自述文件。
- 要启动 nmon 工具,输入 nmon。
- 如果您是 root 用户,可能需要输入 ./nmon。
下面介绍下安装工具步骤,其实安装还是挺方便挺简单的

[root@lamw /home/lam7/nmon]# ls
nmon16d_x86.tar.gz nmon_analyser_v51_2.zip
将下载的 nmon16d_x86.tar.gz 解压
[root@lamw /home/lam7/nmon]# tar -xzvf nmon16d_x86.tar.gz
然后会到解压出来好多类型不同平台的二进制nmon,笔者这里的系统是nmon_x86_64_centos6,所以给nmon_x86_64_centos6文件执行权限
找到对应的linux版本
不知道版本的可以输入
[root@lamw /root]# lsb_release -a 查看版本
![](https://images2015.cnblogs.com/blog/911086/201703/911086-20170323132530971-370930087.png)
[root@lamw /home/lam7/nmon]# chmod u+x nmon_x86_64_centos6
笔者这边把 nmon_x86_64_centos6 文件名称改成“nmon”了方便后续执行 (PS:如果不改文件名称可以直接 ./nmon_x86_64_centos6去执行)
然后就可以用 ./nmon去执行了
[root@lamw /home/lam7/nmon]# ./nmon
nmon是个交互式程序,当我们执行nmon的时候会出现一个交互窗口,我们执行相关的命令就会出现相关的信息。
比如这里我按c,就会显示cpu的相关信息
根据自己需要监控的数据直接输入相关信息即可,按H 可以查看对应的命令帮助解释
按q键,退出显示,其实就是这么简单。
下面通过nmon_analyse生成分析报表
nmon -h 可以查看帮助信息

运行带 -f 标志的 nmon 命令。
nmon -f -s 30 -c 100
[root@lamw /home/lam7/nmon]# nmon -f -s 36 -c 100
-f 表示生成的数据文件名中有时间;
-t 输出中包括占用率较高的进程;
-s 36 表示每 36 秒采集一次数据;
-c 100 表示采集 100 次,36s*100=3600秒;
采集60分钟数据,这样运行一次这个程序就会生成一个采集 60分钟数据的文件。该行命令将在当前目录中创建输出文件,其名称为:<hostname>_date_time.nmon", hostname" 是这台主机的主机名。
在采集当中也可以通过命令
ps -ef | grep nmon 查看采集数据的进程
[root@lamw /home/lam7/nmon]# ps -ef | grep nmon
60分钟后 再次执行 此命令可以发现 进程已结束
在我们当前目录下可以查看到 以 ****_170323_1102.nmon 命名的文件 “***”为主机名称
我们通过more命令后发现都是我们看不懂的一些文本,这就需要我们把其转化成我们能看懂的excel格式的文件。首先我们把****_170323_1102.nmon文件导出到我们的windows本地。然后通过nmon Analyser 去生成报告CSV文件
下载安装 nmon Analyser
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/Power+Systems/page/nmon_analyser
下载解压后 发现 一个是NA_UserGuide v51_2.docx的说明word格式的说明文档,另一个是nmon analyser v51_2.xlsm格式的nmon analyse文件。
打开nmon analyser v51_2.xlsm 导入从linux中导出的 ****_170323_1102.nmon文件,生成报告excel文档
如果是用WPS打开nmon analyser v51_2.xlsm的,会提示安装 宏 ,wps是不带宏的,安装 宏 之后 调整Excel宏安全性:工具--宏--安全性----低
