Data collected by the ps utility can be analyzed to find processes that use a significant amount of the system's resources and you can adjust the thresholds to meet your needs.

Since AIX allows you to control the kernel's scheduling algorithms, SarCheck reports on the priorities of the processes found in the ps data.
