All process running currently on Solaris machine and Physical memory usage

I am looking for all the process running on my Solaris 11 box which ps -eaf would help me.

But how do I get info on "Physical memory used by each process that are currently running on the server"

For example: If I have 5 process running @3PM then output should look like:

memory_usage Pid PPid Pname

The prstat command is your friend.

It is similar to top on Linux, only better. If you like top more then you can also use that on Solaris.

Anyway, here's an example using prstat:

$ prstat -c -n 99999,99999 -s rss 5 1

The above command is suitable for non-interactive use and lists all processes on the system during the last 5 second interval. Processes will be sorted by their RSS (memory usage) so that the process which consumes the most memory is listed first.

Here's what it looks like on my system:

$ prstat -c -n 99999,99999 -s rss 5 1
Please wait...
