This is normal and expected. HPVM preallocates about 92% of memory available at boot time into HPVM memory pool.

See HPVM Admin Guide (www.hp.com/go/hpux-hpvm-docs).

try

# hpvmhwmgmt -l -p memory

It will show you the memory pool details

Perfect,and i will get problems if i use a program(for example: oracle db) wich use a lot of ram?

If you have the VPARS/VM software installed, then I would NOT use the VM host to also run Oracle.  You should be running Oracle in one of the VMs, since I assume that is why you installed the software.

100% right.
