Memory on 11.31 HPVM

[Carme Torca]

Hi,

Is it normal that one ivm server with 11.31 has a 45% consum from system + cache?. The users' processes are only the 55%, but the memory that spends on system and cache are the 45%.

Thansk a lot of!

Carmen.

What are your file cache kernel parms?

[Carme Torca]

Here you are:

filecache_max                1837530316  15%         Imm (auto disabled)
filecache_min                 612510105  5%          Imm (auto disabled)

>filecache_max       1837530316  15%

I suppose you could make it even smaller.  But this would imply you are taking up a lot of space for the system.

To get more details you would need to ask Support for their kmeminfo tool.

but its its diferent from OVO graphics:

User processes        =        0    0.0b   0%  details with -user
System                =      522    2.0m   0%

Any idea?

(This output fragment appears to match what's above for kmeminfo.)

If you have the proper version of kmeminfo, I would trust its output.
