Hello, everybody! I had been reading about "Virtual Memory" and I would like to know what exactly it is in the Solaris -maybe in UNIX- argot. Is it the same of "swap" space usage?
How could I measure the Virtual Memory utilization of a given server?
Thanks in advance!
Yes it is. iostat would probably be the utility you should check out to measure performance of a filesystem.
Thanks for your answer, sir! I checked the iostat command (see below) but I can't figure out which field is exactly about Virtual Memory... for example, Virtual Memory Utilization. I looked in the iostat manual but I don't understood it.
Could you give me a hand, please?
$ iostat
