How can i monitoring memory

[ANDRE David]

Hi,

I would like monitoring the memory of system by process.
How can i know the memory consuming by process?
I have a graphical monitoring ( with Glance plus in sam ), but the display is a global usage of memory.

Thanks.

Please take a look at KBRC00011764 "How to account for memory usage on an HP-UX system"

it details a suite of tools which HP customers can download namely shminfo,kmeminfo and procsize which would be of use here ....

unfortuantly I cannot post this document.

There is a simple command which roughly shows memory usage per process - highest first (but it doesnt show shared memory usage);

UNIX95= ps -e -o vsz=Kbytes -o ruser -o pid,args=Command-Line | sort -rnk1 | more
