You use # top command and Glance to monitor particluar process's memory utilization.

glance -m
UNIX95= ps -ef -o vsz= -o pid= -o args=|sort -nrk1
will give top 16 memory consuming processes.

You can use top or ps command or get glance tool.

Using UNIX95 variable,
# UNIX95= ps -ef -o sz,pid,comm,vsz

where,

sz The size in physical pages of the core image of
the process, including text, data, and stack
space.
vsz The size in kilobytes (1024 byte units) of the
core image of the process.

You can use ServerVantage tool to monitor top 10 applications that consume your memory.
See this link for detail:

Hi,
Is the vertual memory and swap memory is same. As part of my application I wanted to increase the virtual memory. Please let me know How I can do that.

You can increase the virtual memory by adding more swap space. You might also want to review the kernel parameters maxdsiz, maxssiz, maxtsiz.

Nope.

Virtual Memory - It includes memory used for code, stack and page swap.

Refer this: http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=962395

You can virtual memory information as,

# vmstat

swap memory information as,

# swapinfo

Find out your physical memory size as,

sam -> performance monitor -> system properties -> Memory tab

Find out your swapinfo and try to allocated swap for that memory configuration. For 1GB RAM you may have to have 1.5 to 2GB swap.

You can tune kernel tuables like, maxssiz and mazdsiz.
