I'm developing a program that works in parallel on HP-345 (Re. 6.5)
work-stations.
The program uses file servers of the following types:
HP-375 (Re. 6.5).
HP-360 (Re. 6.5).
SUN 3/60 (Re. 4.1.1.).
Both the work-stations and the file servers have SCASI disks.
I'm interested in improving the performance of the software I
developed, by dividing the work between the work-stations according to
the load on each work-station.
I'm familiar with the parameters fetched from the UNIX rstat and
rnusers commands, but, I'm interested in a formula that will sum-up
the most importand parameters and will end up with one number (scalar)
that will represent the totel load on a work-station.
NOTE: Using the rstat command on a work-station that has a SCASI disk,
doesn't return the transfer disk parameters.
