SWAP size and usage in Solaris

If you want to know how large your SWAP area is and how much space currently is consumed then you need to use the command swap:

# swap -l

swapfile                 dev        swaplo blocks   free

/dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/swap 256,2      16     8388592  8388592

The last colums shows blocks and free, where blocks is the current size and free shows how many blocks are free. The manpage for swap holds the following information:

# man swap

...

         blocks

             The swaplen value for the area in 512-byte blocks.
         free
             The number of 512-byte blocks in this area that  are
             not currently allocated.

...

Now you can multiply both values to get the current SWAP size in Bytes:

# echo 8388592*512 | bc -l

4294959104

Deviding 4294959104 by 1024 three time will give you the SWAP size in GB:

# echo 8388592*512/1024/1024/1024 | bc -l

3.99999237060546875000

Use the following command to get the used and free space of your Swap in GB:

# swap -l | grep -v "swapfile" | awk 'BEGIN {FS=" "} {print $1" - Size: "$4*512/1024/1024/1024"GB - Free: "$5*512/1024/1024/1024"GB"}'
/dev/md/dsk/d5 - Size: 16.0029GB - Free: 16.0029GB

The ouptut was taken from another machine but does the same.
You can check the above value if you are using ZFS:

# zfs get all rpool/swap | grep volsize

rpool/swap  volsize               4G                     -
