Filesystem cache/buffers under HP-UX

Hi,

I am in the process of implementing HP-UX support for the Ganglia Cluster Monitoring Toolkit. There are two metics that we have not yet tackled. They are what is known in Linux as "buffer" and "cache" memory.

"buffer" is the amount of memory dedicated/used for filesystem meta-data.

"cached" is the amount of memory dedicated/used for actula filesystem date.

Can anybody show me a programatic way (like via pstat) to retrieve this kind of date under HP-UX?

Thanks
Martin
