Subject: *****SPAM***** prstat memory display on Solaris 10

When I issue the command “prstat –a”, the memory displayed is not explainable.  May be someone can help me with this.

 

We know that the server has only 32Gigs of real memory and 20 Gigs of swap space.  Why does it display “oracle” is using 924G of memory?

 

Thanks.
