Help on SHMMAX

Hi.

Allocated is showing in hexadecimal which comes to 1 GB
But the usage is showing more (14 GB). Can you please explain why? Normally, usage should be less than allocated

Parameter Current Dyn Planned Module Version

shmmax 0x40000000 Y 0X40000000

$ ipcs -mba |awk '{print s+= $10}' |tail -2

DESCRIPTION

       The   CardBus   slots   in   Solaris   are  hot	plug  capable.	This  capability  is  supported  by  the  PCI  hardware  specific  library
       /usr/lib/cfgadm/pci.so.1 through the cfgadm command (see cfgadm(1M)).

       The hot plug administrative models between  CardBus,  PCI,  CompactPCI,	and  PCI  Express  operate  the  same  fashion.  Please  refer	to
       cfgadm_pci(1M) for the usage information.
