OK. That wasn't actually stated in the problem description. I've updated the problem description to indicate which one is which. > > If nobody needs more than 8 RT signals on regular (non-BrandZ) Solaris > > -- and nobody has described such a need > > CERN search returns > http://cernintranet.web.cern.ch/lists/devel/sysadmin/2006-April/028611.html: DNS reports NXDOMAIN for that host.

Where's the CR number? I'm afraid I see no evidence that anyone ever filed such a request, at least according to our bug tracking system, which makes the above statement seem a bit less likely. > > Would there be a point in bumping up the number of available RT > > signals for regular Solaris alone, without addressing BrandZ? > > Yes. We wouldn't need a Linux emulation in this case. OK. It wasn't clear whether the application was simply Linux-only and thus the extra RT signals were potentially needed only for that environment or whether the BrandZ usage was just a failed attempt at getting the functionality needed. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <james.d.carl...@sun.com> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list opensolaris-code@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
