Didn't I answer this last week?
Your script is wrong. The figure you are using includes all of the shared
memory. i.e. Pages of memory used by more than one process. Therefore you
are counting these pages more than once and you will inevitably end up with
an inaccurate figure.

Subject: Urgent : total memory usage
Hi all,
AIX 4.3.3
I writed the following script to estimate the total memory usage by all
processes in the system based on the "virtual" colonne of the "svmon -C"
command, but the result returned is always greater than the size of real
memory (bootinfo -r).
Is that normal ? Did I miss something ? I really need your help.
