I am getting the alert of swap memory is at threshold.
swapinfo -tam Mb Mb Mb PCT START/ Mb

However it is showing with the above command is 8% by echo swap lvol, then how come it has become 91%.And also memory utilisation is not showing the swapinfo o/p.

You have 91% of your swap space RESERVED. That is, processes that are running have reserved that much space just incase they need it. It is only actually using 8% of your swap space.
>>>also memory utilisation is not showing the swapinfo output.

>You need to enable pseudo-swap by turning on swapmem_on(5)
You must keep in mind that the memory utilization line in swapinfo, if pseudo swap is on, is NOT the amount of memory being used. Rather, it is the amount that has been allocated for pseudo-swap. There is a difference!
