AIX is not supported

[smartmouse]

I was trying to run pm2 test on AIX platform but got the following message:

Error retrieving process list: Error: aix is not supported yet, please fire an isue (https://github.com/soyuka/pidusage).
Hopefully this will be supported soon on AIX.,
Thanks you

I was thinking about it yesterday!
Could you give me the result of: ps -o pcpu,rss -p some_pid. I just need to know if the command works.
Is there a /proc folder in aix?

[soyuka]

AIX doesn't have any /proc/pid/stat file nor /proc/uptime. I need some alternatives to this (:. What is your version?
I have no AIX access, I could really need a hand here!

Running AIX 6.1.0.0 and AIX 7.0.0.0

-bash-4.2$ ps -u pcpu,rss -p 15401046
UID PID TTY TIME CMD
3005 15401046 - 0:00 node

yes , there is /proc on AIX

-bash-4.2$ ls -l /proc/sys
total 0
dr-xr-xr-x 13 root system 0 04 Jun 12:08 aio
dr-xr-xr-x 6 root system 0 04 Jun 12:08 fs
dr-xr-xr-x 6 root system 0 04 Jun 12:08 iodone
dr-xr-xr-x 4 root system 0 04 Jun 12:08 lvm
dr-xr-xr-x 12 root system 0 04 Jun 12:08 posix_aio

-r--r--r-- 1 root system 93 04 Jun 12:07 version

ps -o pcpu works but I can't get the rss :/.

# ps -o pcpu -p 131136
 %CPU
  0,0

I can't find any equivalence to : /proc/uptime and /proc/{pid}/stat in my old AIX version... Any suggestions?

[soyuka]

Could you try installing the package from the git repository and see if your results seems to be consistent? I can't install nodejs on AIX right now.

ps isn't accurate on linux systems compared to /proc informations but it should work too! If you find a way to get an uptime (in seconds) and same informations as /proc/{pid}/stat in linux feel free to share your informations or PR.

Thanks!

Btw seems that the ibm site is down to me atm :/.

Hey on AIX. they have an uptime command

[soyuka]

Yes I'm aware of that but I have no aix system to test or develop on this :/.
