Viewing kernel parameter usage

[Jim McKee_1]

Is there a utility for HP-UX 11.11 that will let me see the usage of various kernel parameters, like kcweb does for 11.23?

HI Jim,

kmtune -l lists them all.

Hi again,

The usage of some can be viewed using;
sar / glance

the graphical version of glance, gpm , which runs on xwindows shows a nice graph of use of critical kernel parameters and swap.

The background performance scripts I'm attaching also do that.

kmtune will show me what the parameter is set to, but not how much of the parameter is currently being used. What I am looking for is something like the system table display in Glance, but for other shared memory parameters.

kcweb should also be available for 11i v1,6, check this link:

But if you want to download it its only available for 11.22........

I guess you have 11iv1 so this would not help you, unless you upgrade to 11iv6.

The software should be included on the core OS dvdrom.
