Hey all, I was noticing that we're lacking a good wikipedia entry for
containers and/or zones. Here's a chance to contribute in a quick
and easy way-- just help improve the article! You don't even

I'm sponsoring the following fix for Mike Gerdts:
6431807 zoneadmd should daemonize itself into a new contract
I would like to request codereview on his behalf; the review should not
take long. Materials are at http://cr.grommit.com/~dp/6431807/
Thanks to Mike, who has worked hard on this fix.

Hi folks, I'd like to try an experiment. As you may know, projects
destined to integrate into OpenSolaris which cause interface or
architectural change must be run through the ARC (architectural
review committee) process. To learn more about ARC, see

I am pleased to sponsor the following case for Steve Lawrence. This
case improves memory resource management and further integrates memory
RM with Zones. The interfaces are Commited (for the rctls and

Probably, although the caveat is that the zone might not be
