What kind of configuration information are you looking for exactly? vmstat will show usage. Items in the proc filesystem will show various kernel memory configuration parameters. Shouldn't the text book for your course contain this information?

hi jcalzare,

but actually my req. is to detect ECC bit errors(parity errors) of main memory

is there any tool/method/command to detect this..? if so please let me know.
