Shared Memory

I hope someone can help me. Is there a command that shows the amount of shared memory being used in the 32-bit environment only and 64-bit environment only. ipcs shows ALL shared memory.

In one sense, your question has no meaning in that both 32-bit and 64-bit processes can attach to the same shared memory segment if the code is written carefully. About the best you can do is pay attention to the CPID and LPID columns. You can then determine if these are 64-bit or 32-bit processes.

Sorry, I meant the shared memory segments. I want to know what processes are using the memory in the 32-bit segment and 64-bit segment.
