Folks, I have the below ouput and I am trying to reconcile the ::memstat output back to the kstats, within the Solaris Perf and Tools book it states that the pp_kernel value is the amount of memory used if I run the following
> ::memstat Page Summary Pages MB %Tot ------------ ---------------- ---------------- ---- Kernel 97685 763 38% Anon 123733 966 48% Exec and libs 5498 42 2% Page cache 11476 89 4% Free (cachelist) 5807 45 2% Free (freelist) 15684 122 6% Total 259883 2030 Physical 255439 1995 > [EMAIL PROTECTED] kstat |grep pp_kernel pp_kernel 103435 [EMAIL PROTECTED] bc -l [EMAIL PROTECTED] pagesize 8192 [EMAIL PROTECTED] bc -l 103435*8192 847339520 847339520/1024 827480.00000000000000000000 827480.00000000000000000000/1024 808.08593750000000000000 808-763 45 We can see the kernel is at 730mb is what I am seeing with the pagesize*pp_kernel the kernel + free( cachelist ) or is this the kernel+ Exec & Libs . I have seen issues with ::memstat not returing as the server is busy and I was looking to use the kstats instead, so any help would be great.
