The tool is a stand-alone binary file (a different file for each AIX or Linux version) that you can install in five seconds, probably less if you type fast. Installation is simple:
Copy the nmonXXX.tar.Z file to the machine. If using FTP, remember to use binary mode. Note: Version XXX replaces this example.
To uncompress the file, run uncompress nmonXX.tar.Z.
To extract the files, run tar xvf nmonXX.tar.
Read the README file.
To start the nmon tool, type nmon.
If you are the root user, you might need to type ./nmon.
