I have a couple of servers that are still running U1 but I'd still like to use zonestat to get as much info as I can. I get the following output when I run zonestat 1.4.1 with debug turned on: root zonestat -l -N /usr/sbin/prtconf /bin/pagesize /bin/echo 'pages_pp_maximum/D;segspt_minfree/D' |

Hi Gael, I went through thinking about this situation almost a year ago and came to the conclusion that the zone root filesystems have to be UFS so they can be upgraded. I have turned on MPxIO to give me multipathing support for the zone roots which are all setup on separate SAN LUNs. I can

Just a reminder that QuickIO is only supported in a global zone. It uses a special device that can't be created in a non-global zone. It should be a fairly moot issue anyway since QuickIO is only useful for Oracle 8i and lower releases, none of which are still supported. QuickIO is still

2007-03-06 Thread Phil Freund
