Hello,

pinned memory is memory that is marked as "do not page out", correct?

persistent storage will never be paged out, correct?

If both is correct, why are there some pinned pages of persistent
segments?

root@0-tvgicsc1 179# svmon -G
               work pers clnt
pin 6740 172 0
root@0-tvgicsc1 180# svmon -S -f|grep -v "0 - -"
  Vsid Esid Type Description Inuse Pin Pgsp Virtual Addr
Range
  78dc - pers /dev/hd2:84132 181 172 - -
0..714
root@0-tvgicsc1 181# ncheck -i 84132 /dev/hd2
/dev/hd2:
84132 /sbin/rsct/bin/hatsd

or, on another system:

sbe12169 # svmon -G
               work pers clnt lpage
pin 786299 5 0 0

sbe12169 # svmon -S -f|grep -v "0 - -"

/dev/hd2:
10817 /sbin/shdaemon
