the CPU and PB commands. Note this value can be gloabally changed with the SET
RATE <seconds> option. You can override the default value without changing the
default by specifying RATE <seconds> on the CPU or PB command. Note that although
short sample intervals such as 1 or 2 seconds cause the screen to update frequently and
these fast sample times are supported by RPM, a one second update is not necessarily
the best setting. Too frequent updates can be disorientating, and in particular a 10
second sample interval has some special advantages. When RATE is 10 seconds, the
digits to the right of the %Busy decimal point represent milliseconds. No other short term
RATE provides this numerical convenience. For example:
Milliseconds Used SET RATE Percent CPU Busy
100ms 10 seconds 1.00% Cpu Busy
90ms 10 seconds 0.90% Cpu Busy
80ms 10 seconds 0.80% Cpu Busy
70ms 10 seconds 0.70% Cpu Busy
60ms 10 seconds 0.60% Cpu Busy

TERM TTY | VT100 | T6530 indicates terminal type for video. TTY is text only with no
video alerts/enhancement provided.
USECS - ON|OFF controls the default value of USECS in the PB command. This option
shows time of day in microseconds for the NORMAL display.
EXAMPLES
SET TERM TTY ! use no video
SET TERM VT100 ! use VT100 video
SET TERM T6530 ! use T6530 video
SET CRIT 50 WARN 10 INFO 1
SET %1 ! Only show Cpus/Processes if >= 1% busy
