This patch for hpux-meminfo.c may help due to 11iv3 page sizes 4096 ,8192 ,16384 ,65536.

I was sent another solution back in December which replaces the hpux-meminfo utility with a bit of shell scripting:

FREE=/usr/sbin/swapinfo |grep ^memory |awk {'print $4'} FREEREPORT=echo $FREE / 1024 |/usr/bin/bc TOTAL=/usr/sbin/swapinfo |grep ^memory |awk {'print $2'} TOTALREPORT=echo $TOTAL / 1024 |/usr/bin/bc echo Total:$TOTALREPORT echo Free:$FREEREPORT

I am not sure of the features of awk on HP-UX, but on Linux, you can do all the processing with a single invocation of awk and swapinfo:

/usr/sbin/swapinfo | awk '/^memory/ {tot=$2/1024;free=$4/1024} END {printf "Total: %d\nFree: %d\n",tot,free}'

It would be useful to know if this version works on HP-UX.
