Hello.
I have a Solaris 11/11 x86 box (which I migrated from SolEx 11/10 a couple of
weeks ago).
Without no obvious reason (at least for me), after an uptime of 1 to 2 days
(observed 3 times now) Solaris sets arc_no_grow to 1 and then never sets it
back to 0. ARC is being shrunk to less than 1 GB -- needless to say that
performance is terrible. There is not much load on this system.
Memory seems to be not an issue (see below).
I looked at the old Nevada code base of onnv_147 and can't find a reason for
this happening.
How can I find out what's causing this?
BTW: I was not seeing this on SolEx 11/10.
Thanks,
Peter
