hi frnds,
I want to monitor a particular process very closly on how much memory it is taking. i tried with TOP and PRSTAT commands that is not giving what exactly i need. In my application, there is a memory leak happening, i want to know when it is occuering, means which transcation is... (9 Replies)
Hi ,
We need to get the CPU% and Memory utilization of process by process id.
Is there any way to do get them ?
I tried few commands like top -p <PID> ,
but am getting error "Quitting top: pset <PID> doesn't exist"
also i tried with ps -eo option but am getting error "ps: illegal option --... (1 Reply)

Can someone please help me with a script that will help in identifying the CPU & memory usage by a process name, rather than a process id.This is to primarily analyze the consumption of resources, for performance tweaking.

Hello Guys,
I have one Solaris server with high memory utilization >90%. As per checking, below is the output for memory usage.

Hi All,
I am using HP-UX 11i v1(B11.11) servers for my work and its memory (RAM) utilization is consistenly 80% for the last one year. Though I am not facing any issues with this high memory utilization I just want to know the below queries:
1) Is it the default behavior of HP-UX systems?

memstat
MEMSTAT(1) Linux Programmer's Manual MEMSTAT(1)NAME
memstat - Identify what's using up virtual memory.
SYNOPSIS
memstat [-w][-p PID]
DESCRIPTION
memstat lists all accessible processes, executables, and shared libraries that are using up virtual memory. To get a complete list memstat
has to be run as root to be able to access the data of all running processes.
First, the processes are listed. An amount of memory is shown along with a process ID and the name of the executable which the process is
running. The amount of memory shown does not include shared memory: it only includes memory which is private to that process. So, if a
process is using a shared library like libc, the memory used to hold that library is not included. The memory used to hold the exe-
cutable's text-segment is also not included, since that too is shareable.
After the processes, the shared objects are listed. The amount of memory is shown along with the filename of the shared object, followed
by a list of the processes using the shared object. The memory is listed as the total amount of memory allocated to this object throughout
the whole namespace. In brackets also the amount that is really shared is listed.
Finally, a grand total is shown. Note that this program shows the amount of virtual (not real) memory used by the various items.
memstat gets its input from the /proc filesystem. This must be compiled into your kernel and mounted for memstat to work. The pathnames
shown next to the shared objects are determined by scanning the disk. memstat uses a configuration file, /etc/memstat.conf, to determine
which directories to scan. This file should include all the major bin and lib directories in your system, as well as the /dev directory.
If you run an executable which is not in one of these directories, it will be listed by memstat as ``[0dev]:<inode>''.
Options
The -w switch causes a wide printout: lines are not truncated at 80 columns.
The -p switch causes memstat to only print data gathered from looking at the process with the gicen PID.
NOTES
These reports are intended to help identify programs that are using an excessive amount of memory, and to reduce overall memory waste.
FILES
/etc/memstat.conf
/proc/*/maps

BUGS
memstat ignores all devices that just map main memory, though this may cause memstat to ignore some memory usage.
Memory used by the kernel itself is not listed.
