Hi all

Another contract, another emial address. :-)
Hope you all had a good festive season.

Quick question.
Was there ever a resolution to this issue?

Searched the archive, and couldn't find one.

To recap, this was where memory reports something bizzare, like this
   Memory              Used       Total  Percentage
red Physical     4294961768M       8192M 4294967229%
green Swap               1600M       8191M         19%

I have the same problem on an aix server.
This is the output of the vmstat command.  As you can see, the avm column is 
'attached' to the next column:

System Configuration: lcpu=4 mem=6144MB
kthr     memory             page              faults        cpu
----- ----------- ------------------------ ------------ -----------
 r  b   avm   fre  re  pi  po  fr   sr  cy  in   sy  cs us sy id wa
 2  1 4295454056  5793   0   0   0  61   80   0  60 30162 1606  9  8 80  3

Not much that I can do, except rebooting the box :(
