Solaris server
Hi, not really a Solaris user, so a little out of my depth, but we have a relatively old Ultra10 server running Solaris and it has been running well for years. However recently it seems to "lock up" on occasion, more so now than before, and needs a reboot to get it back to normal. This is only temporary however as it does not take long for it to freeze up again (sometimes even a couple of hours) so not sure what to do. It's not running anything heavy, just one application in fact, a management system for a telecoms system.
Any ideas on what I should check? Does the memory or something get full after a while or even perhaps the disk or what? Not sure what to look for.
