Best way to monitor use of memory resources for an RHEL instance
I wanted to know what is the best way to monitor use of memory on an RHEL server. We have 16 GB of memory for the RHEL instance but the usage at any time is more than 99%. I use /proc/meminfo on the server to check memory.
I hope, my question is clear that what is the best way to monitor use of memory on an RHEL server.
Please revert with the reply to my query.
Regards

xrestop
xrestop(1) General Commands Manual xrestop(1)
NAME
xrestop - monitor server resources used by X11 clients
SYNOPSIS
xrestop -help
xrestop [ -display display ] [ --batch ] [ --delay-time seconds ]
DESCRIPTION
Xrestop uses the X-Resource extension to provide 'top'-like statistics of each connected X11 client's server-side resource usage. It is
intended as a developer tool to aid more efficient server resource usage and debug server-side resource leakage.
OPTIONS
--help Show usage.
--display, -d <display>
Specify X11 display to monitor.
--delay-time, -dt <seconds>
Time in seconds between taking samples. Default is 2 seconds.
--batch, -b
Run in batch mode. Slightly more detailed infomation is streamed to stdout rather than the usual curses interface. This mode is
intended for debugging a single client with something like
xrestop -b | grep -A 15 appname
--max-samples, -m <count>
Specify number of times to gather and display results. Default is continuous, which can be set with 0 (zero).
SEE ALSO
X(7), top(1).
BUGS
The X-Resource extension is very new and may not be 100% accurate.
