Some time top output is not correct. Use sam as,

sam -> performance monitor -> system properties -> memory part -> Real Memory.

Just run

# /opt/ignite/bin/print_manifest

It will give all information.

Hi,

Take a look at this link, It has lots of info on how to check your memory contraints, also on how you calculate the memory usage.

Here's a c program (just compile it with the native HP-UX compiler) called memdetail:

# memdetail
Memory Stat total used avail %used
physical 14240.0 12606.9 1633.1 89%
active virtual 15227.2 4860.9 10366.3 32%
active real 10316.3 3063.5 7252.8 30%
memory swap 11139.4 1788.3 9351.1 16%
device swap 26528.0 14599.9 11928.1 55%

If you have glance installed, the memory selection has most, if not all, of the info you want.

glance = text based version
gpm = gui version

Hi Rahul
To get the toatl physical memory info on yr system, run the command

# dmesg | grep -i physical

TOP will give you an approx. idea on how much is being used and how much is free.
