Re: cpu utilization on solaris

Run 'top' and see what the CPU hogs are. If they are Oracle shadow processes, check with the user that owns the session. It may belong to someone whose PC crashed or the just shut it off, and you have a disconnected session consuming resources.

If you discover a shadow process is consuming 100% of a CPU, it probably needs to be killed. Just be sure to find out if it's OK to do so first.
