solaris 10 (u11) zone impacting all system.
Hi,
I have a Sparc T5 server running zones.
System is Solaris 10 update 11.
Since a few weeks one one zone running a Oracle 11.2 Database causes from time to time the system to become unresponsive.
Only when rebooting the zone (with difficulty) does the system come back to normal.
-The load gets relatively high (around 50).
-CPU usage is low (pgstat show about 10-20% use on all CPU components)
-Disk io is normal with service times near 0 ( zone's storage is made of a raidz of fast SSDs)
-I've dedicated CPUs the Oracledb zone can use, limited memory and swap (but kept it big enough for an oracle db).
