Question Finding Total Memory Of VIO Server.

Hi,

I would like to know how to find Total Memory of Vio Server? I have used command prtconf | grep Memory , though this command is showing allocated memory of vio server.

But I would like to find out Total Memory of VIO Server,

Though this can be find out using browser http://<ip address of vio server>

But how to find out same thing using command?????????

Regards,

Manoj

Code:
root@vioprod2:/>lsattr -El sys0 | grep realmem
realmem         1048576            Amount of usable physical memory in Kbytes        False
root@vioprod2:/>

It sounds like you want the total physical server memory, not just what's allocated to the VIO lpar. Login to the HMC as hscroot and type the following to find the machine name:
Code:
lssyscfg -r sys -F name

Now use that information to get the memory in the machine.
Code:
lshwres -m MACHINE_NAME -r mem --level sys -F configurable_sys_mem

got you wrong, forget this post Smilie
you want the memory of the physical machine/blade, not of the vio server

therefore you need the hmc, as mentioned above, if it's a blade, lshwres can be run from the vio in oem_setup_env

Thanks Funksen for your valueable input, but while running lshwres command it is showing me as command not found, wheather any additional package needs to be installed?
