prstat O/P

Good Evening everyone,

I am confused about prstat O/P as it shows memory values which are different from actual value.Below is the O/P of prstat command and swap commands.

NPROC USERNAME SIZE RSS MEMORY TIME CPU

48 root 2113M 1590M 1.2% 45:09.39 32%
31 daemon 54G 53G 41% 528:03.20 29%
19 remedy 3581M 3529M 2.7% 0:01.14 2.0%
67 oracle 71G 70G 54% 34:26.00 0.7%
48 i3 2013M 350M 0.3% 24:25.16 0.3%
12 integral 835M 596M 0.4% 0:30.50 0.1%
13 tuxenv03 184M 134M 0.1% 1:22.14 0.0%
2 candle 36M 21M 0.0% 0:00.06 0.0%
1 tuxenv02 5000K 2048K 0.0% 0:00.00 0.0%
8 tuxenv01 156M 31M 0.0% 0:00.24 0.0%
16 mqm 437M 83M 0.1% 1:08.40 0.0%
13 tuxenv04 166M 116M 0.1% 0:00.17 0.0%
2 ucps 3032K 1848K 0.0% 0:00.48 0.0%
1 tuxenv05 5000K 2048K 0.0% 0:00.00 0.0%

In the above O/P, my confusion is values in RED color.


bash-2.03$ prtconf |grep -i memory
Memory size: 12288 Megabytes
memory (driver not attached)

bash-2.03$ swap -s
total: 4971032k bytes allocated + 930912k reserved = 5901944k used, 9563880k available

bash-2.03$ swap -l
swapfile dev swaplo blocks free
/dev/vx/dsk/swapvol 237,7 16 4097312 4097312
/dev/vx/dsk/swapvol1 237,8 16 8388592 8388592


Please can any of you help me. Reallly it is confusing me. Total memory (Including Swap memory) is 9563880k + 12288M.


Immediate reponse would b appriciated....
