When I got back to the office this morning I removed the hostname.e1000g0 file and the boot was still slow. Doing an ifconfig e1000g0 plumb once the box came up took ~ 3 seconds. When I investigated as to why the boot was still slow it now appeared to be in the system-filesystem-root method. Adding the -x and some date commands showed that the slowness is now showing up in the '/usr/sbin/devfsadm -I -P' command. This makes me believe it is a general issue in the device enumeration section of the kernel, and it just happened that the initial plumb of e1000g0 was triggering it first when I had the interface brought up doing the boot sequence. I guess I'll move my question to the kernel mailing list (or if someone can suggest a better one).
If anyone has some dtrace or other debugging them would like me to put in placed I'd be more than happy to. This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
