Memory status

Kasman_1 — Thu, 15 Mar 2007 22:42:28 GMT

Hi Gurus,

We have two HP servers (RP5470) which have same memory size, CPU speed, and running the same applications.

But when we used vmstat to check both machines, we realised that one has much lesser available virtual memory than the other.

We used top command but we cannot see anything unusual,unfortunately we do not have HP Glance software.

Is there any ways we can check the memory utilization for certain processes or can we check for any potential memory leak ?

Thank you

Hi,

When we tried to compare both servers, we found out that one server is having these two extra processes.

RUSER VSZ PID PPID COMMAND
root 86432 2353 1 ./diald

root 26684 2262 1 /opt/sanmgr/hostagent/../jre/bin/../bin/PA_RISC2.0/native_threa
Previously we had one incident of HDD failure and we are wondering those two processes were triggered by HP's event monitoring daemon or STM ?

Please advise.

Thanks.
