Apologies for cross posting but I have been looking at the probes fired when a
snapshot is created.

Hi,
Please forgive me if my searching-fu has failed me in this case, but
I've been unable to find any information on how people are going about
monitoring and alerting regarding memory usage on Solaris hosts using
ZFS.
The problem is not that the ZFS ARC is using up the memory, but that the

I think you can get the amount of memory zfs arc uses with arcstat.pl.

Memory is meant to be used. 96% RAM use is good since it represents an
effective use of your investment.
Actually, I think a percentage of RAM is a bogus metric to measure.
For example, on a 2TBytes system, you would be wasting 80 GBytes.

Ben Rockwood's written a very useful util called arc_summary:
http://www.cuddletech.com/blog/pivot/entry.php?id=979
It's really good for looking at ARC usage (including memory usage).
You might be able to make some guesses based on kstat -n zfs_file_data
and kstat -n zfs_file_data_buf. Look for
By combining two great tools arcstat and dimstat you can get ZFS statistics in:
* table view
* chart view
* any date/time interval
* host to host compare
For example, online table and chart view
