Hi,
We had high paging on our production system two days back.
we would like to know the time at which paging was high in a day.
No dumps reported about high paging.
Ours are AIX sytems.
I don't have permission to do "svmon" in OS level
Is there any way of finding the same from OS level.
Regards,
Venkat
In most cases a message is displayed on the console when the system runs out of memory and paging occurs but if you don't have permission to run 'svmon' I doubt you will have permission to view the console log.
Anyway the command would be:
alog -o -f /var/adm/ras/conslog

Hi,
As per your assumption I don't have permission to view the conslog.
I need you help in analyzing this command "sar"
when I did sar -u below is the out put.
sar -u
Can't open /var/adm/sa/sa29
Try running /usr/lib/sa/sa1 <inc> <num>
what is <inc> <num> meant for ????
I am able to go to the path /usr/lib/sa and file sa1 is existing under user "bin"
Regards,
Venkat.
what is <inc> <num> meant for ????
<inc> is increment ie how many seconds between samples <num> is number of samples
...so eg
sar -u 1 5
...will give you 5 samples with 1 second between each sample.
See 'man sar' or the following [link|http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60127/sar.1M.html] for further information.
You should setup sar correctly with a cron and make sure directory /var/adm/sa exists. Otherwise just use the above for current measurement.
