Memory Usage Question

[yeazel]

I have an E450 w/ 2GB of RAM in use. I'm looking at upgrading it to 4GB. Is there a way I can determine the density of the existing RAM/# of slots that are in use versus the number available without cracking the system open. Anyone know how I could determine this from the command-line? The system is running a production DB that I'd rather not take down unless I have to.

Thanks in advance.

yes, i am nos actually on a unix sys.
if this is solaris
look for something like
/usr/plattform/*/*toc
try a find on /usr/plattform | grep toc
then type
what-you-found -v | more
you will get the number and size of all you mem sims

Found what I needed. It was in /usr/platform/sun4u/sbin/. The executable is prtdiag. It shows CPU, RAM, and the IO card layout of the system.
