Re: How to find the virtual memory
swapinfo -tam
Post the output if you desire interpretation.
You can measure its use with the vmstat command or one of the sar commands.
See http://www.hpux.ws/system.perf.sh for a good guide on which sar command.
1 post, three suggestions.
Forth suggestion: System and Network Administration 1 & 2. http://education.hp.com

Re: How to find the virtual memory
The virtual memory here is 24576MB. But the good part is that nothing is in use. If this is the scenario when system is running normally, this will be the ideal situation.

Re: How to find the virtual memory
Quite a bit of tools are available:
1. vmstat - vmstat(1)
2. sam -> Performance Monitors
3. use the nickel script - http://www.grc.hp.com/docs/nickel/
HTH.

Re: How to find the virtual memory
swapinfo prints information about device and file system paging space.
(Note: the term `swap' refers to an obsolete implementation of
virtual memory; HP-UX actually implements virtual memory by way of
paging rather than swapping. This command and others retain names
derived from `swap' for historical reasons.)

Re: How to find the virtual memory
Your Virtual Memory is 24.5 GB and nothing is occupied yet, You can also use "sam" to get to know the system properties.
