Sam,

I use this little script:

HPUX=/stand/vmunix
MAJORREV=$(uname -r | cut -f2 -d .)
if [ $MAJORREV -ge "11.0" ]
then
MYSYMBOL="phys_mem_pages"
else
MYSYMBOL="physmem"
fi

MYMEM=$(echo "${MYSYMBOL}/D" \
| adb $HPUX /dev/kmem \
| grep "${MYSYMBOL}: *." \
| awk '{printf "%.0f MB\n",$2/256}')
echo $MYMEM

Hi,

# typset -i PAGES=0 MEM=0
# PAGES=$(echo "phys_mem_pages/D" | adb -k /stsnd/vmunix /dev/kmem | tail -1 | awk '{print $2}')

# (( MEM=PAGES*4/1024 ))
# echo $MEM

If you have diagnostics installed you can also use this:

# echo "selclass qualifier memory ; il" | cstm | grep "Total Physical"

Hi Sam,

Try,

grep Physical /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log

or if you have STM/cstm on the system,

echo "selclass qualifier memory;info;wait;infolog" | cstm | grep 'Total Configured'

Hope this helps.

Hi Sam,

If you have perl installed and in your path, you can also use,

echo 'memory_installed_in_machine/D' | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem | perl -nle'/(\d+)/&&print$1*4,"k"'

Hope this helps.

Sam,
dmesg | grep Physical
this should get you what you need

Hi,
Please I don't have Perl installed nor other utilities.
The /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log give me 2097152 kbytes.

Could you please interprete this figure for me as it is more than what I expect

Hi sam,

if you got the ignite ux installed

execute the print_manifest command to get the full system information. You also get to see how much memory is installed in the system.

/opt/ignite/bin/print_manifest

with best wishes

Thanks guys,

I used Naveej's ignite solution. It worked much faster.

Sam,

If i read that right, wouldn't Physical:2097152 kbytes be about
2 gig of physical memory?
