2010-07-27 Thread Sunay Tripathi

[zones-discuss] zonestat, prstat -Z, and cpu accounting

2010-07-27 Thread Peter Tribble
Looking at the recent zonestat arc case reminded me of something I've been meaning to ask for a while. In the case, it says: prstat polls /proc, and will not account for cpu used by short-lived processes. and Extended accounting must be used to compute the cpu utilization because it will

Sorry about the wait. I've used this before: Shut down the zone From the global zone do this: pkg -R /path/to/zone/root install SUNWdbus Restart the zone This allowed me to do `SSH -X u...@myzone gedit` which might be halfway to what you want? HTH, Ben -- This message posted from
