We had this problem on our solaris boxes with our tivioli backups.

I've been told ISS thinks they've fixed the problem, but I can no longer
get our solaris guys to test this after months of trying to track down
why some of the hosts were dropping off the network.

Cheers,

Hi all, 

 

  We have a rather large deployment of server sensors, but on several
Solaris boxes we have had crashes.  I believe it's because the entire
datacenter is gigabit, and when the bandwidth utilization gets high it
causes the ISS buffer to fill up, and then stop handing the packets off
to the OS.  Has anyone successfully tweaked SR4.3 for Solaris to stop
the PCD from looking at certain traffic that hogs bandwidth?  (ie Ftp /
backups).  

 

Thanks!

 

Jeremy
