About resmon

  • resmon is not started if the FR425 node is enabled.
  • The way resources are monitored is different on Solaris and Linux: files m_sunos5.c / m_linux.c.
  • resmon has no shared memory.
  • To enable traces in resmon, use non-public parameter RESMON_TRACE (e.g. RESMON_TRACE=0xff) in omni_conf_info file. Traces are put into $OMNI_HOME/Logs/Event…

To compute available memory on Linux, resmon extracts information from /proc/meminfo:

 memory in use = 100 รข€“ 100 * available / total
 available = free + shared + buffers + cached
 total = used + free
