How much memory do I have - HP 9000 "N"

[JHL_1]

Hello. I'm trying to find a simple way (command line?) to find out how much total memory I have. I've looked in dmesg but the instance has been removed (log too long) and both in SAM and the kernel. Is there a definitive way of finding out how much memory is on the system? Not sure swapinfo gives me an accurate value.

Thanks

Hi John:

Here's my favorite:

# echo "selclass qualifier memory;info;wait;infolog"|cstm > /tmp/meminfo

The reason I like this, is that you can see the memory module sizes and arrangement too.

Run xstm, click on memory, right click on Information, then when its done, right click and select View Information log.

John,

Couple of many ways.

1. grep Physical /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log (or wherever your log file is)
2. cstm
>selclass type memory
>information
>infolog
(Check the Physical Memory here)
>exit
>ok

Hi,
If it is HP-UX 11 with 64 bit

then
echo phys_mem_pages/D |adb64 -k /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem

or else
echo phys_mem_pages/D |adb /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem

Hi John,

Another easy way to find out the physical memory is /usr/sam/lbin/getmem
(gives the memory in MB)

This will work for a "one liner":


echo "slclass product memory;info;wait;il\ndone\nexit\nok">doit;stm -c -f ./doit
|grep -i "Total Configured Memory"

Another way is to
Run glance
press m (for memory)
It shows the physical memory
