HELPLIB.HLB  —  MONITOR  MONITOR  PROCESSES
    The MONITOR PROCESSES command initiates monitoring of the
    PROCESSES class, which displays information about all processes
    in the system.

    In a multifile summary request, the classes CLUSTER and PROCESSES
    are ignored. If these classes are the only classes specified on
    the command line, MONITOR does not recognize them and displays a
    "no classes specified" error message.

    Beginning in OpenVMS Version 8.3, four new qualifiers (
    /TOPKERNEL, /TOPEXECUTIVE, /TOPSUPERVISOR, and /TOPUSER) allow
    you to monitor per-process-based modes usage. These qualifiers
    are useful in helping to identify the top consumers of the
    various CPU modes. For example, if the MONITOR MODES command
    reveals that an excessive amount of supervisor mode is being
    used, the new MONITOR PROCESSES/TOPSUPERVISOR display reveals
    which process-and therefore, which user-is responsible.
