Hi all,
I'm having some trouble with the freemem on an aix4.3 client and need some help. First I didn't install the OS, so vmstat in not installed. I found nmon which gives a 'top' like output as below: $ ./nmon -s 1 -c 1 nmon v8a Hostname=cbaix43 Refresh=0.0secs 09:44.46 Memory Use Physical Virtual Paging pages/sec In Out % Used 37.4% 6.0% to Paging Space 0.0 0.0 % Free 62.6% 94.0% to File System 0.0 0.0 MB Used 95.7MB 31.0MB Page Scans 0.0 MB Free 160.3MB 481.0MB Page Cycles 0.0 Total(MB) 256.0MB 512.0MB Page Reclaim 0.0
I grab the output from the "MB Free" section and multiply the Physical (160.3) by 1024, and then send a dummy vmstat like line to the freemem section as shown in the clientdata below: client cbaix43.aix aix [date] Fri Jun 15 09:38:44 EDT 2007 [uname] AIX cbaix43 3 4 009002194C00 [uptime] 09:38AM up 114 days, 10:33, 1 user, load average: 0.03, 0.06, 0.08 ... ... [realmem] realmem 262144 Amount of usable physical memory in Kbytes False [freemem] 0 0 0 162304 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 [swap] Total Paging Space Percent Used 512MB 7%
The problem is this is what I'm seeing on the memory webpage for the client: Fri Jun 15 09:38:44 EDT 2007 - Memory CRITICAL Memory Used Total Percentage Physical 18446744073709551238M 256M18446744073709551469% Swap 35M 512M 6%
Any ideas?? Thanks -Grs- Gregory R Shea
