DCE usage continued... I am guessing this is likely my problem... root@web006:~# netstat -nd |wc -l 704075 It is really twice as bad as that, as there are two proxy zones per physical server. I found this which outlines the fundamental problem. http://smartos.org/2012/02/28/using-flamegr

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] ZVOL (et al) /device node access rights

I have been looking at changing from file to zvol, not for performance reasons. A few questions on using ZVOL 1. Is it as stable as using a file for disk? 2. Is it possible that snapshots sizes could be smaller vs file? (This is my main reason, snapshot replication.) 3. Can this be used with KVM?

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Memory usage concern

I should also mention that over all network performance degrades over time and the only fix I have sound so far is to shut down the zones, destroy the vnics, recreate them, and then reboot the zones. I do that about every four hours to keep the response times reasonable. It really sucks. j. __

The other part of my comment was joke on my behalf, since restarts of host OS are rare and often I forget to check if guests came up properly
