Hey,

Here's the info you requested.

T5220(Sparc) solaris 10
Solaris 10 8/07 s10s_u4wos_12b SPARC
SunOS servername 5.10 Generic_127111-11 sun4v sparc
SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise-T5220

So far I've been pretty unimpressed since the install.  Lots of
problems.

Mind sharing how to shutoff tcp fusion?  I thought it was supposed to be
fixed with the later releases, but maybe I'll try shutting it down.

Thanks!

Joel

Joel/Peter, would you mind supplying a couple Solaris-related questions:

-> Sparc or x86?
-> What rev was installed (from /etc/release)
-> What patch cluster you last installed

I'm preparing a new SN and Server using Sol-10-Sparc, and right now
we've only qualified the May-08 cluster against the Aug-07 release
(which in theory would make the kernel like the May-08 release anyway).

I'm also looking at turning off TCP Fusion, for safety's sake.  It would
not surprise me if that's part of the TCP issues mentioned in the
thread.  I can supply the change required if anyone needs it.

>From our new SN (which is going live in two weeks, under 7.1.3 for now):

foo# cat /etc/release
                       Solaris 10 8/07 s10s_u4wos_12b SPARC

foo:/# uname -a
SunOS foo 5.10 Generic_127111-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V440

Hopefully the Veritas import test *works* this time.  :)

Joel - I'm a bit concerned about the index issue.  We have systems here
with very long retentions, and God help me if I have to nuke one of
those indexes to fix a problem.  How did you track down which index was
at fault?  And I also want that bugid.  :)
