Hi ,
I am facing an issue with rcapd, currently I have setup 8 sparse-root
containers on a server with 32G physical memory , I have capped each of these
containers varyingly and there is no issue with capping and it works fine.
The issue arises when one of the containers eats up more memory
Hi Syed,
I would not be surprised to find that rcapd is behaving correctly on
your system. All of the containers in one Solaris instance share one
Solaris paging system and one set of swap devices. When rcapd is
paging the memory pages of one container out to the swap device, other
workloads

Hi Mike,
I think you are right, using rcapd for virtulization using zones would be a
problem,
thanks for the work around , really appreciate your help.

I'm struggling with the resource capping documentation. This environment

and the documentation is frustratingly vague about resource capping and
zones.
A) If I run rcapd in the global zone and have resource settings via
zonecfg for one or more zones,
it would seem to me that I

When rcapd is calculating how much memory is free, to compare to the memory

It is possible that prstat and rcapd are counting shared memory multiple times,
Funny but ironic: rcapd never counts its own memory usage. See the source code
at http://cvs.opensolaris.org/source/search?q=rcapd_pid . Once you subtract
rcapd's 128MB, the *rest* of the zone is using exactly what you specified as the cap.
But I don't see why rcapd should be using 128MB...
