shmem use

All

I don't know if this is even possible but I would like to see the total amount of shmem used on a server.

Using glance I can see the amount per process but is there an easy way to see the total?

Thanks in advance
Barbara

$ ipcs -ma | awk '{if(NR>2)t+=$10}END{printf("%11dMb\n", t/1048576)}'
3236Mb

In addition to the ipcs, meminfo,

there is also a shminfo tool. this gives much details information about shared memory.
