Module: INFORMANT-STD
OID (symbolic): INFORMANT-STD::memoryAvailableBytes
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9600.1.1.2.1
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Gauge32
Access: read-only
Description: Available Bytes is the amount of physical memory available to processes running on the computer, in bytes. It is calculated by summing space on the Zeroed, Free, and Stand by memory lists. Free memory is ready for use; Zeroed memory are pages of memory filled with zeros to prevent later processes from seeing data used by a previous process. Standby memory is memory removed from a process' working set (its physical memory) on route to disk, but is still available to be recalled. This counter displays the last observed value only; it is not an average.
What is memoryAvailableBytes?
This Gauge32 reports physical memory (RAM) available to processes, in bytes, summing the zeroed, free, and standby memory lists; it's a last-observed snapshot (not an average), so admins watch it directly for a memory-pressure warning when it trends toward zero.
Examples
