'show system resources' will show the total, used, and free memory stats right at the top of the response.

Hey @BPry
Correct me if I am wrong but isn't show system resources to view management plane related processes?
For viewing dataplane health I would use the "show system resources follow" command. For historic logs you would then use the "dp-monitor" log (> less dp-log dp-monitor.log)

Hello,
The less mp-log dp-monitor.log command generates a massive output values !!
Which counter indique the memory used on the DP ?
PS: In fact, show system resources gives the mem on the MP...

Hey @licenselu
In the output from the dp-monitor, you'd want to start reading from "malloc allocator".
If you have access to PANTS or AutoAssistant tools then you can drop a tech support file in there and generate some cool graphs based on DP MEM utilisation as an aggregate or a per process basis.

Definitely right. The whole reading thing before second coffee is real hard 😉

@LukeBullimoreHey - are you a PA customer? Did your SE get you access to PANTS ot AutoAssistant? If so, on-prem or hosted?

Hey @dberber1
I'm a partner, Technical Partner of the year 😉
Pants is available to ASC Partners
https://asctraps.paloaltonetworks.com
AutoAssistant I believe is available only for CPSP partners
https://autoassistant.paloaltonetworks.com
In which case, your best option at the moment would be to create some graphs in excel based on the data from the dp-monitor.log. This log file is contained in a tech support file or otherwise you can obtain it via SCP:
> scp export log-file data-plane
+ remote-port SSH port number on remote host
+ source-ip Set source address to specified interface address
* to Destination (username@host:path)
Otherwise, reach out to your SE.
Cheers,
Luke
