NAME
       intrd - interrupt distribution daemon

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/lib/intrd

DESCRIPTION
       The  intrd daemon is started at boot time to monitor the assignments between interrupts and CPUs. If intrd decides that the current assign-
       ments are imbalanced and harmful to system performance, it will generate and implement new assignments.

       Any notifications will be delivered via syslogd(1M).

       Because intrd dynamically monitors a system  for optimal performance, it consumes a small amount of CPU	time, even on  an  otherwise  idle
       system. This behavior is normal.

NOTES
       The interrupt distribution daemon is managed by the service management facility, smf(5), under the service identifier:

	 svc:/system/intrd:default

       Administrative  actions	on  this  service, such as enabling, disabling, or requesting restart, can be performed using svcadm(1M). The ser-
       vice's status can be queried using the svcs(1) command.
