Memory usage

[Siddique_1]

Hi,
How do I monitor memory usage on HP-UX 11.0 cluster system. I have no X display.
Many thanks in advance,
Nadeem

Nadeem,

You've reached the MPE side of the ITRC and you need to re-post to then HP-UX System administration group. However, I do believe that the command
'top' will give you rudimentary
memory utilization statistics.

There are also third party tools that you can use, like SOS/9000 from Lund Performance Solutions. They can be reached at www.lund.com

HTH,

swapinfo -tm

look at your syslog.log for out of memory errors, file core to see if memory failures etc..

Later,
Bill

Nadeem,

If you have purchased the HP glance software, you can run "/opt/perf/bin/glance -m" at a command prompt to check the memory utilization.

Hi Nadeem


There is a simple C program which can be run to get the o/p like this

Memory Stat total used avail %used
physical 32764.0 8058.4 24705.6 25%
active virtual 531.3 128.9 402.4 24%
active real 597.0 136.0 461.0 23%
memory swap 26522.5 3738.2 22784.3 14%
device swap 2378.0 2365.5 12.5 99%


I ahve attached the script , you can jsut compile it and run it any time you want to monitor.
