RSS of prstat vs RSS of PS

Hi,

When I sum the RSS number in the ps command for a specific user and compare it with the RSS values of the prstat command of the same user - there is a big difference.

Server details: Solaris 10 5/09 s10s_u7wos_08 SPARC

prstat output:
Code:
NPROC USERNAME  SWAP   RSS MEMORY      TIME         CPU                             
259    gpsvip01    14G     10G  87%           136:57:30 6.0%

PS:

When I sum the value of RSS of all the processes for user=gpsvip01, it sums with 20GB.

Note- when I compare the RSS values of PS vs lparstat on a different server (Oracle Solaris 10 8/11 s10s_u10wos_17b SPARC) the values are almost the same.


Question: This zone has 12GB of memory. Is it possible that gpsvip01 user is using memory from other zones, and how can I prove/disprove this assumption?
