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%

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/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.

On Solaris 8, when I try to run prstat 30 5 as a background process, the command exits 1-2 seconds after it's initiated instead of the 30 seconds I specified.
It runs fine in interactive mode.
Is there a workaround to this I could use? (Upgrading the package is not an option)

set_color
set_color(1) fish set_color(1)
NAME
set_color - set_color - set the terminal color
set_color - set the terminal color
Synopsis
set_color [-v --version] [-h --help] [-b --background COLOR] [COLOR]
Description
Change the foreground and/or background color of the terminal. COLOR is one of black, red, green, brown, yellow, blue, magenta, purple,
cyan, white and normal.
o -b, --background Set the background color
o -c, --print-colors Prints a list of all valid color names
o -h, --help Display help message and exit
o -o, --bold Set bold or extra bright mode
o -u, --underline Set underlined mode
o -v, --version Display version and exit
Calling set_color normal will set the terminal color to whatever is the default color of the terminal.
Some terminals use the --bold escape sequence to switch to a brighter color set. On such terminals, set_color white will result in a grey
font color, while set_color --bold white will result in a white font color.
Not all terminal emulators support all these features. This is not a bug in set_color but a missing feature in the terminal emulator.
set_color uses the terminfo database to look up how to change terminal colors on whatever terminal is in use. Some systems have old and
incomplete terminfo databases, and may lack color information for terminals that support it. Download and install the latest version of
ncurses and recompile fish against it in order to fix this issue.
