My solaris system has 16GB RAM and swap. /tmp is associated
to swap. We use vmstat command to get used system memory.
We observe that once we fill up /tmp, it reflects in vmstat
command. My intention is only to get overall used memory in
RAM.
1. Can you let me know the if there is a solaris command to
just get used memory in RAM?
2. How is /tmp filling up associated to "free memory" in
vmstat command?
