Folks, I came across an IPv6 snv_31 network driver problem during testing. I can "ping" an IPv6 address, but when I try and log on to the IPv6 address I get an RPC failure. Not knowing much about dtrace, I thought I would give some of the networking dtrace scripts a try that I found here: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/dtrace/dtracetoolkit/ (tcptop or any other script in the

I see Intel has released a new tool. Oh, it requires some patches to the kernel to record latency times. Good thing people don''t mind patching their kernels, eh? So who can write the equivalent latencytop.d the fastest? ;-) http://www.latencytop.org/ -- cburgess at qnx.com

Hello all, i''m trying to run the tool tcptop from the dtracetoolkit but it fails. I got the following error: tcptop -C 30 dtrace: failed to compile script /dev/fd/11: "usr/include/sys/kstat.h", line 439: invalid type combination I let it run on different machines on a Ultra 45 and a E20K both with Solaris 10 same result. any ideas? best regards Jens This message

Hi people, When working with some usdt C++ probes we have come across a few issues. Controlling USDT Function name: Putting in usdt probes into C++ code gives you the mangled enclosing function name for the probes Function name. Working around this can be a pain. You need to wrap your usdt probes in extern C functions and call these. Could we have an option to control the Function name for

We''re running a Solaris 10 container, with an Oracle 9.2.0.4 database - every 5-10 min, an Oracle process shoots up (using 20% + CPU) and then goes down in CPU %, doing a [i]pollsys [/i](see it via dtruss). I tried using some of the trace scripts in the Dtracetoolkit to see what the process is doing, but without any luck - also tried with the following, but dtrace process goes up to 30%

i''m using the following probe to calculate how many bytes are being written by tcp write calls, by process and total: fbt:ip:tcp_output:entry { this->tcpout_size = msgdsize(args[1]); @tcpout_size[execname] = sum(this->tcpout_size); @tcpout_size["TOTAL_TCP_OUT"] = sum(this->tcpout_size); } I run this probe for N seconds. I suppose that if i get the

hi, i want to find out the total number of incoming connections for a machine at any time using dtrace.anyone please suggest me the solution. This message posted from opensolaris.org

FYI, I posted a blog a few days ago about a DTrace provider for NFS that is currently in development: http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/samf?entry=a_dtrace_provider_for_nfs Let''s discuss any questions, comments, etc. here. I also advertised this on nfs-discuss at opensolaris.org. Naturally, I would expect the discussion here to be more on the specifics of DTrace, and the

I have been using iosoop script (see http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/dtrace/scripts/) written by Brendan Gregg to look at the IO operations of my application. When I was running my test-program on a UFS filesystem I could see both read and write operations like: UID PID D BLOCK SIZE COMM PATHNAME 203803 4436 R 6016592 16384 diskio <none> 203803 4436 W 3448432

Hello, I have the following problem: On a solaris 10 machine, with 5 "zones" there is a process that is talking to the wrong db server. I need to find out which process this is, so I can analize this further. I have tried to doing this using tcpsnoop from the DTrace toolkit, but without success. This is what I''ve done. First I started tcpsnoop, dumping it''s output

Does anyone out there have any thoughts on the type of load common DTrace scripts would cause on a system if run 24x7? I know "common DTrace scripts" and their underlining probe calls a vague statement. So for the lack of a common and establish set of scripts in the OS, I''ll use the most popular right for my question...the DTraceToolkit from Brendan Gregg. Which by the

I sent this to Brendan but never got a response. Maybe someone else can help? ----- Hi Brendan. I''m trying to debug a problem where I need to snoop the network traffic over a punchin connection, where snoop doesn''t work. I found your tcpsnoop dtrace tool, which seemed like it might be able to do what I need. Unfortunately, it doesn''t seem to have an option to dump

Hi i''m trying to write my first dtrace script apparently i bit off a bit more than i can chew, i want to track io over sockets, i found your socketsize.d that gave me how to track writes, but i''m at a loss how to track reads, frankly i don''t see how your write tracker works because it uses a probe in a function that only takes two arguments but you grab size of write

Whilst trying out some D to get an insight into what is the most common reason for a given function to return, I have bumped into an error I don''t understand. The first take on what I was trying to do was: # dtrace -n ''fbt:ip:ip_input:return{@home[arg0] = count();}'' and all was well. The next step was: # dtrace -n

Hi, I''m working on some performance analysis with our database and it seems that when the file system (UFS) is mounted with forcedirectio, the IO probe are not triggered when an I/O event occurs. Could you confirm that ? If so, why ? Seb -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

Hiya, I''m trying to track down some throughput latency that our customer seems to be attributing to our product, I can''t see what he''s talking about, but I want to try and get some deeper granularity than I might get with something like smokeping, and maybe even see if its down to something tunable on our end. I''ve been looking for some examples on how

Is there a trick to listing available providers? I can''t find it.

Dtrace and Performance Teams, I have the following IO Performance Specific Questions (and I''m already savy with the lockstat and pre-dtrace utilities for performance analysis.. but in need of details regarding specifying IO bottlenecks @ the controller or IO bus..) : **Q.A*> Determining IO Saturation bottlenecks ( */.. beyond service times and kernel contention.. )/ I''m
