- system on which a process is running
- elapsed process time
- CPU resources that were used for each process during the last sampling interval
- total physical resident memory
- I/O rates and process state
- total virtual memory size
- CPU time that a process consumed executing programs and library functions during the last sampling interval
- CPU time that a process consumed by the kernel in system calls and administrative overhead during the last sampling interval
- average CPU usage over the life of the process
- parent process ID
- number of open files that the process had open during the last sampling interval
- name of the real user ID
- user ID of the logged on user that initiated the process
- name of the user ID that is being checked for access privileges (effective user ID)
- user ID that is being checked for access privileges (effective user ID)
- name of the user ID of the previous effective user ID at the time of the last SETUID() command

Full command names
The Process Name field in the PSLOVERR view shows a limited number of bytes of the process name. To view the full process name, select the Process Name field. By hyperlinking on the Process Name field, you can display the full command and parameters.
Parent/child relationship of current processes
The PSLTREE view displays the relationship between parent and child processes in the system. The PSLTREE view uses a combination of the sequence number and level number to show the order and depth of the branches of the tree, following any process to the last child process. The PSLTREE view shows the following information:
- unique process ID
- process name of the command that it is executing
- process ID of the current process’ parents
- number of processes that have the same parent (sibling count)
- number of processes that this process created (child count)
- name of the real user to which the process belongs
- number of generations between the current process and the original process
