Hi

Can anyone advise me on how to increase me swap space and also see what programme is using the space.

 
Thanx theycallmetim

What do vmo -L and ioo -L output? Commands does not work
 
What level of AIX are you on?

These are 5.2 commands. You can get the same on 4.3 and 5.1 w/

/usr/samples/kernel/vmtune

You'll need bos.adt.samples fileset
 
just fyi don't use vmtune on 5.2 it is just a link to run other programs, if you 'fall back' to old standards you lose a LOT of config options. look up
vmo
ioo

svmon -P pid gives you a complete breakdown of the memory usage.
You should be interested only by the "work" segments because the persistant segs do not require space on the paging space (because they are files in filesystem).
So you can do a "svmon -p `ps -ef|awk '{print $2}'` > output.out
Then you can elaborate this output.out
