Here is an updated script we use to report memory utilization on HP-UX 11.31 ia64. The obnoxious part is that it requires a sudoer entry for the Xymon user to run /usr/bin/adb.

#!/usr/bin/ksh

This has been modified to compensate for ia64 reporting inaccuracy

from swapinfo. It does in the case of ia64 require a

sudo entry to allow the user to execute a /usr/bin/adb command.

This script properly calculates memory values on HP-UX systems where

memory

page size has been increased. Tested on HP-UX 11iv3 Itanium with 8k,

16k, and 64k

memory page sizes.

This has been modified to compensate for ia64 reporting error from

swapinfo. It does in the case of ia64 require a

sudo entry to allow the Xymon user to execute a /usr/bin/adb command.

sudoers entry something this should work: BB ALL=NOPASSWD:

/usr/bin/adb
