High memory usage in AIX 5.1

Hi,

We have AIX 5.1 machine of RAM 8 GB and paging space is 8GB. we are getting high memory usage of almost 99%.Can anybody please help in this ?

Partial vmstat o/p

kthr memory
----- -----------
r b avm fre
2 1 278727 1143

There is no paging issue.Becoz in vmstat output pi and po are always 0Should we need to increase the AVM (active virtual memory) or how to resolve this.


Regards,
Jayakumar
