Now that wintertime is behind us, it's time
for me to call it "strange" : from time to time, my
Sunray servers freeze! It has happened for the last
5-6 months (approx), but for all that time I suspected the below-zero
temperatures -- okay, make that I was too lazy to investigate...

My config is
- 4x V240 servers, 4Gb RAM each,
- Sol10 U3, fresh installs, latest recommended patches
- SunRay Software 4,
- approx. 6 to 8 users on each server

The "freeze" lasts for about a minute, and then, slowly, everything
comes back to life, as if nothing ever occured.
It happens once every few day, at various hours, on every server,
with no pattern or special occasion noticeable.

It happened twice on the same server in the last hour, hence this
SOS-mail !

There's nothing reported in the logs  : as far as I can see,
nothing (strange) in /var/adm/messages (see below)
nothing (strange) in /var/opt/SUNWut/log/messages
nothing (strange) in the ALOM console

It just stops -- as if someone did a Stop-A and then a Resume
a few moments later...
See gkrellm graphs : http://www.cindy.ensmp.fr/~olampi/gk.png
the graph on the right hand side (SRS5) :
the CPUs show some high activity, the procs raise, then it freezes
for ~80s (during that time, the others performed normally), and then
proc is sky-high, then CPU starts at near zero activity, and back to
normal again.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think it all started when I upgraded from
Sol10 U2 to Sol10 U3.

Where can I look ? What can I do ?
