The first command is accurate for the entire system, the second is only showing stats on some specific junos processes. You're definitely (almost) out of memory, the 70M inactive + 14M free is available for use, but you're clearly facing pressure since you've already swapped on 79M of inactive pages. Run top from shell, hit o, and sort by "res" to see what else is consuming memory on the box. -- Richard A Steenbergen <[email protected]> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC) _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
