Finding RAM SIZE in HP-UX as a normal user???

[Torsten.]

cstm (diagnostic info tool on memory) gives you a lot of information, but it differs depending on the hardware. you always see the total installed memory, the configured memory (a difference here indicates a failed/disabled memory area) and were the memory is installed and sometimes the free/available slots .

Hi:

With regard to your last questions:

1. Generally, a Perl 5x version will have been installed in '/opt/perl' or in '/usr/bin'; usually in '/opt/perl' with a symbolic link from '/usr/bin/perl' to it.

Do:

# whereis perl

...to find where your binaries live. You may find one in '/usr/contrib/bin' but this will be an old version.

To see Perl versions, do:

# /opt/perl/bin/perl -v

You want to use the latest 5.x version you can.

2. There is no harm in running 'cstm' in the mode suggested.

3. THe DIMM sizes and the "System Total" should correlate to the Total Configured Memory.

Regards!
