Another recommendation for nmon. Learn the hotkeys in it and you can get a wealth of info, including process memory usage. svmon, however, is more purpose-built for your desired use, and is endorsed as the proper solution on this IBM official page: Help - AIX 7.1 Information Center

I tried very hard to get my system to do some paging, but failed.
I was trying to show changes in th PgSp column - as that is what you are looking for.
Use a larger number than 5 (seconds) - in a real situation I would use at least 60.
So, once you see some regular changes in the PgSp column then you have the segment ID. Use svmon -P to capture everything to a file and then find the process(es) that are using that segment.
(also try having the vmstat -I -w NN running in the background to watch for pi/po activity as well.)

I do have a friend who have this script already but lost it. Can you please help to give me a script that can capture the closed_wait on the stack and identify which process using it. I am thinking of using netstat and rmsock. (2 Replies)
