Ray,
Here's a screen shot from "nmon"
of my NetView server.
AIX 5.2
NetView 7.0.3
objects in ovwdb : 13,334
ovwdb cache : 35,000
trapd cache :
50,000
Installed RAM : 3G
Swap
: 2.2G
Paging Space used never drops below 20%
I am running dangerously near capacity with 3G of RAM and 2.2G of
swap.
With 2.0G of paging space I occasionally was
thrashing. I bumped it up to 2.2G.
I am not using any
Java clients. Still using X11/Motif via eXceed.
I have
requested more RAM....
RAM, is like many other
things...... You can't have too much :)

Subject: [nv-l] Memory
Considerations for AIX NetView Server
Installation
Hello Everyone.
NV 7.1.3 on AIX 4.3.3. ML10.
I was doing research on memory considerations. I'm sure I need
to buy more
memory for my server but I don't know how
much.
In the section entitled "Computing Memory Needs based on
Object Count", I
noticed the numbers in the Config.
Guide have not changed from 6.0 to 7.1.x.
And I'm
aware of the java processes to consider as stated in the Release
Notes. My ovwdb cache setting is 35,000. According to the
ovobjprint -S
output, the number of objects defined in
the database is 23,500.
Here's a list of processes for a typical NetView (native
console) user and
vsz of each.
user 18028 /usr/OV/jre/bin/java -jar
/usr/OV/jars/virtualdesktop.jar
--logconfig
/usr/OV/conf/virtualdesktop-log4j.properties
38408
user 24826
/usr/OV/bin/ipmap
92724
user 38346 /usr/OV/bin/nvevents
4872
user 44964 /usr/OV/bin/collmap
764
user 51694
/usr/OV/bin/dispsub
504
user 59556 rshd
576
user 59940 /usr/OV/bin/backup
772
user 60886
/usr/OV/jre/bin/java -jar /usr/OV/jars/maptreeserver.jar
--logconfig /usr/OV/conf/maptreeserver-log4j.properties 22792
user 66246 /usr/OV/bin/disptec
316
user 89140 ksh
/usr/bin/netview
412
user 90408 /usr/OV/bin/ovw
60800
user 93550 /usr/OV/bin/ovhelp
552
I used ps -ef -o user,pid,args,vsz | awk '/user/ &&
!/awk/' to get the list.
I used ps-ef -o user,pid,args,vsz | awk '/user/ &&
!/awk/ {sum +=
$NF}END{print sum}' to get the
totals.
The total is 223,492K. The ovw process alone is
60,000K.
Here are my questions:
Are my methods
for arriving at these numbers valid?
Should these
values in the Config. Guide be updated?
Do these
values from my process list seem correct?
How do they
compare with other AIX NetView Server installations?
Thanks.
