memconf - 29-Mar-2024 V3.17.1 -
perl script that displays memory modules installed in a Sun/Oracle Solaris, Linux,
FreeBSD or HP-UX system. Listed in the
SunManagers FAQ.
Usage: memconf [ -v | -D | -h ] [ explorer_dir ]
-v verbose mode
-D send results to memconf maintainer
-h print help
explorer_dir Sun/Oracle Explorer output directory
memconf reports the size of each SIMM/DIMM memory
module installed in a system. It also reports the system type and any empty
memory sockets. In verbose mode, it also reports the following information if
available:
- banner name, model, and CPU/system frequencies
- address range and bank numbers for each module
If memconf does not completely recognize a system,
then please send the output of '/usr/sbin/prtconf -pv' on Solaris 2.X or later,
or '/usr/etc/devinfo -pv' on Solaris 1.X and
'/usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/prtdiag -v' and
'/usr/sbin/prtfru -x' if available to
tom@4schmidts.com
so that memconf can be enhanced to properly recognize it. You can do this using
the 'memconf -D' command. If the unrecognized system is a Sun clone, please
also send any hardware documentation on the memory layout that you may have.

Downloading:
- You may download
memconf
from these locations:
- Sourceforge.net:
- https://sourceforge.net/projects/memconf/
Use GNU "gunzip" to uncompress the .gz file. Your browser may automatically
uncompress the file for you. If you download on a Windows PC, you may need to
use "dos2unix" to convert the file.
- You may also want to download the UNIX man page in nroff format.
- OpenCSW:
Installation:
- If using the memconf perl script
- Place memconf in a directory that is in your path, such as /usr/local/bin.
You may need root privileges to place the script in a system-wide path.
- Make the script executable using "chmod 755 memconf"
- If using the Solaris package, install as root using "gunzip memconf-pkg.gz;
pkgadd -d memconf-pkg"
- perl also needs to be installed in your path.

FAQ:
- Running memconf gives me this error:
"/usr/bin/env: No such file or directory"
- Cause #1: perl is not found
in the path of your shell.
- Solution #1: Add the path where perl is
installed to your shells path in .profile or .cshrc, or change the magic line
of the memconf perl script to read "#!/usr/local/bin/perl" using the path to
your perl install.
- Cause #2: File is saved in DOS format.
- Solution #2: Convert file using dos2unix command on your *NIX machine.
- You can download Sun/Oracle Explorer from
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17559_01/em.111/e21076/ch1_install.htm
To use this output, you must specify the directory with the extracted files,
not the .uu or tar.gz file generated by Sun/Oracle Explorer.
