Asking regarding GlobalMemoryStatus

[yck]

Hi all,

I'm handle a project regarding remove mainwin dependencies and this cause many problem. As title, GlobalMemoryStatus is Microsoft Specified function and it cannot be use in HPUX. As this happen, could anyone give me any solution or suggestion that solve my problem? Or is that any HPUX function that can replace GlobalMemoryStatus?

Thanks.

I am not sure exactly what you are looking for. For memory information use the vmstat command. Do a "man vmstat" to get more information on how to run the command.

Hope this helps,
Marty

As I know, vmstat only use in command line but not in runtime mode. GlobalMemoryStatus is a Microsoft Specified command which will gather all memory information and the result will be keep in a structure,
But I don't know whether HPUX do provide this kind of function or not?

Hi,

I would suggest that you look into using the
'glance Plus Pak'. If you haven't installed it
there is a 60 day free license you can use.
I has a number of features within it to either
monitor these types of statistical information
or the ability to extract it through reporting
commands into various formats.

You can view the manuals on-line here:

Hi,

If I understand you correctly you want
to obtain info about the system programatically. If that is the case I would
advise you to take a look at the pstat functsions. They may be used to get all kinds
of info.

Start with man pstat
and you will find the info you need.
