I was sent another solution back in December which replaces the
hpux-meminfo 
utility with a bit of shell scripting:

FREE=`/usr/sbin/swapinfo |grep ^memory |awk {'print $4'}`
FREEREPORT=`echo $FREE / 1024 |/usr/bin/bc`
TOTAL=`/usr/sbin/swapinfo |grep ^memory |awk {'print $2'}`
TOTALREPORT=`echo $TOTAL / 1024 |/usr/bin/bc`
echo Total:$TOTALREPORT
echo Free:$FREEREPORT

(the original message is

 from Earl Flack)

Can you confirm if this shell script works OK for you ? 
I would much rather use standard shell-tools than a custom
C program that I have difficulty supporting.


Also, anyone with access to older HP/UX versions ? I would
be most interested to hear if Earl's shell version to get
the memory info works on other HP/UX versions as well.

Henrik
