Check out swapinfo -tam .

For deeper inspection, there is vmstat, glance and ps ofc and more, depending on the specific need.

Hello Arun888,

I have prepared a command for BASH, for checking the memory. May help you sometime.
Code:
free | awk '/Mem/{printf("used: %.2f%"), $3/$2*100} /buffers\/cache/{printf(", buffers: %.2f%"), $4/($3+$4)*100} /Swap/{printf(", swap: %.2f%\n"), $3/$2*100}'

Output will be as follows.
Code:
used: 77.46%, buffers: 54.08%, swap: 0.00%


Thanks,
R. Singh

This is HP-UX, right? The free command is for Linux only.
