Henrik,

This is a good page the Rosetta Stone for UNIX.  I was looking to find 
out how I could determine physical memory on an OSF host, so you could 
include the memory test for OSF?

Here is where I was looking:

http://bhami.com/rosetta.html

And here is the command I used to determine physical memory (could have 
read the man page for vmstat):

# vmstat -P

Total Physical Memory =  5120.00 M
                       =   655360 pages


Physical Memory Clusters:

  start_pfn     end_pfn        type  size_pages / size_bytes
          0         256         pal         256 /    2.00M
        256      655349          os      655093 / 5117.91M
     655349      655360         pal          11 /   88.00k

Physical Memory Use:

  start_pfn     end_pfn        type  size_pages / size_bytes
        256         277   unixtable          21 /  168.00k
        277         284    scavenge           7 /   56.00k
