I am using bb-memory to get memory data for each of my hosts and I am seeing an odd result. This is from a system with 16 gig of memory installed:
Memory Used Total Percentage
Physical 682M 784M 86% Actual 66M 784M 8% Swap 0M 2047M 0%
The host is running linux....any ideas why I see this reading?
Thanks
Kevin

I would run it like this
export BBHOME=/path/to/bb . /path/to/bbdef.sh sh -x /path/to/bb-memory.sh
to debug

bb-memory isn't exactly rocket science ... on Linux, it basically takes the output from "free -m" and reports those data. So check that your "free" command reports the correct data - if not, get that fixed.
