We run a single Java process in the zone, and I am 100% certain it is
dead (it doesn't show up in the output of ps, and the pid isn't listed
in the /proc file system).

I don't see any issues similar to this in the opensolaris bug
database, which is why I thought it would be appropriate for the
opensolaris mailing lists. If anyone is interested in looking at the
core files, I can make them available. Assuming this is an unknown
bug, identifying the root cause of it would help everyone who uses
Solaris and opensolaris.


Thanks for the feedback,
