similar to: mdb ::memstat including zfs buffer details?

We have a 32 GB RAM server running about 14 zones. There are multiple databases, application servers, web servers, and ftp servers running in the various zones. I understand that using ZFS will increase kernel memory usage, however I am a bit concerned at this point. root at servername:~/zonecfg #mdb -k Loading modules: [ unix krtld genunix specfs dtrace uppc pcplusmp ufs md mpt ip indmux ptm

Hello. I have a Solaris 11/11 x86 box (which I migrated from SolEx 11/10 a couple of weeks ago). Without no obvious reason (at least for me), after an uptime of 1 to 2 days (observed 3 times now) Solaris sets arc_no_grow to 1 and then never sets it back to 0. ARC is being shrunk to less than 1 GB -- needless to say that performance is terrible. There is not much load on this system. Memory

Hello, ZFS is behaving strange on a OSOL laptop, your thoughts are welcome. I am running OSOL on my laptop, currently b124 and i found that the performance of ZFS is not optimal in all situations. If i check the how much space the package cache for pkg(1) uses, it takes a bit longer on this host than on comparable machine to which i transferred all the data. user at host:/var/pkg$ time

Hello all, I have a question. Below are two ::memstat outputs about 5 days apart. The interesting thing is the "anonymous" memory shows 2GB, though the two major hogs of that memory (two MySQL instances) claim to be consuming about 6.2GB (checked via pmap). Also, it seems like the ARC keeps creeping the kernel memory over the 4GB limit I set for the ARC (zfs_arc_max). What I was also,

We have a serious performance problem on our server. Here is some data: <pre> > ::memstat Page Summary Pages MB %Tot ------------ ---------------- ---------------- ---- Kernel 1133252 4426 31% Anon 1956988 7644 53% Exec and libs 31104 121 1% Page cache

Hello. We''re currently using a Sun Blade1000 (2x750MHz, 1G ram, 2x160MB/s mpt scsi buses, skge GigE network) as a NFS backend with ZFS for distribution of free software like Debian (cdimage.debian.org, ftp.se.debian.org) and have run into some performance issues. We are running SX snv_48 and have run with a raidz2 with 7x300G for a while now, just added another 7x300G raidz2 today but

I am trying to see how ZFS behaves under resource starvation - corner cases in embedded environments. I see some very strange behavior. Any help/explanation would really be appreciated. My current setup is : OpenSolaris 111b (iSCSI seems to be broken in 132 - unable to get multiple connections/mutlipathing) iSCSI Storage Array that is capable of 20 MB/s random writes @ 4k and 70 MB random reads

Hi, Can I use DTrace to determine memory status? 1.Total Physical Memory, Used Memory. 2.Total Swap Space and Used Swap Space. I did find few DTrace scripts but had too much in them and I am unable to chop off unwanted lines of code due to lack of knowledge. It will be very helpful if some one can share the piece of code that serves my purpose as mentioned above. Regards, Ramesh. Ramesh

I would appreciate if somebody can clarify a few points. I am doing some random WRITES (100% writes, 100% random) testing and observe that ARC grows way beyond the "hard" limit during the test. The hard limit is set 512 MB via /etc/system and I see the size going up to 1 GB - how come is it happening? mdb''s ::memstat reports 1.5 GB used - does this include ARC as well or is

Can someone, more learned in the ways of dtrace point me at what to look at to help understand why the kernel on one machine is using tons of memory, while another machine doing the same task/same user load is not. swapinfo for the "afflicted" machine shows RAM _______Total 16384 Mb RAM Unusable 73 Mb RAM Kernel 9226 Mb RAM Locked 2 Mb RAM Used

I am enclosing a patch that implements the KVP (Key Value Pair) functionality for Linux guests on HyperV. This functionality allows Microsoft Management stack to query information from the guest. This functionality is implemented in two parts: (a) A kernel component that communicates with the host and (b) A user level daemon that implements data gathering. The attached patch (kvp.patch) implements

Running an mmap-intensive workload on ZFS on a X4500, Solaris 10 11/06 (update 3). All file IO is mmap(file), read memory segment, unmap, close. Tweaked the arc size down via mdb to 1GB. I used that value because c_min was also 1GB, and I was not sure if c_max could be larger than c_min....Anyway, I set c_max to 1GB. After a workload run....: > arc::print -tad { . . . ffffffffc02e29e8

Hi everyone, I''m new with RoR and I''m working on a project that uploads information (keys-values) from a file into a database. Here is the situation: Somewhere in this file there is a strin-table such as the following: "hello" = "hello world" "sayHIgh" = "Saying hello to the world" I have parsed the files with a ruby script in such a
