Viewing the Amount of Swap Space

This task describes how to discover how much swap space is available for either a swap area or an entire system.

To View the Amount of Swap Space in a Swap Area

  1. Access the swap area instance in the SWAP application class so that you can view its parameters.
  2. Open the SWPSwapFreeSpace parameter. BMC PATROL displays a graph that shows the amount of available swap space in the designated swap area over time.

To View the Amount of Total Swap Space on the System

  1. Access the Summary instance in the SWAP application class so that you can view its parameters.
  2. Open the SWPToTSwapFreeSpace parameter. BMC PATROL displays a graph that shows the total amount of available swap space on the system over time.
