Number 10: Print Utilization statistics per process
Number 9: File System Flush Activity
Number 8: Seek Sizes
Number 7: Print Overall Paging Activity
Number 6: Getting System Wide errno Information
Number 5: I/O per process
Number 4: I/O Sizes Per Process
Number 3: TCP Top
Number 2: Who’s paging and DTrace enhanced vmstat
Number 1. I/O Top
Included with each are script samples, which the author chose since they are the ones “that have helped me debug and solve problems on the Solaris 10 servers I support.”
