> Hi, Firstus postus We use Net-SNMP for system health inspection. We noticed that our 64 bit apps did not report their pr_size variable from the psinfo struct correctly. Some info on the web shows that checking with a 32 bit application give incorrect values for 64 bit applications. What is the method to get correct values for these variables?

OK, reading my previous post, I realise there is some missing info...

This variable in psinfo translates to the hrSWRunPerfMem variable. This 
variable returns correct
values for 32bit applications but goes to 0 for 64bit apps on Solaris 10.

A  32bit compiled test C program using code similar to that in 
agent/mibgroup/host/hr_swrun.c also
validates this behaviour. If this same application is compiled as 64bit, 
it gives correct return
values of the 64 bit apps.

I couldn't find any information on the net-snmp to explain this 
behaviour. Should I file a bug or
must net-snmp be built as a 64 bit binary to solve this problem?

We could build a work around using the pr_pctmem in the solaris psinfo 
struct, but I can not find a
matching value in the mibs.  It could be that it is not available via 
net_snmp This value
translates to the used memory in a 15 bit fraction.

Hope this clarifies my first message a little
