Determining amount of RAM

[Jim VanMeter]

System admnistrator not available and I need to know the amount of physical memory, RAM, on one of our HP's (9000/735) running HP-UX 11.0. I know I can find out if I reboot and watch the screen (not practical at this time), but is there a command which will give me the information?

Thank you in advance.

Have you tried command dmesg or /usr/sbin/dmesg

Or if you have glance..you could check it there.
Or if you have access to SAM you can check it there under System Properties.

Just a couple quick thoughts,
/rcw

Use the "top" command at the prompt, you will need a "CNTRL c" to exit

example
prompt$top

Load averages: 0.20, 0.17, 0.14
