Check out the memory status, hope there is no dedicated memory assigned for zones. Start the DB in zone and test the memory utilization in Global. If not memory issue, it will something else then Smilie

afaik the "keyserv" is for secure nfs. do you use nfs inside the zone? maybe you have data on a nfs share which get in a "stall" state?

if there are no nfs or nis+ issues this might not be the cause of the hanging zone...

zlogin with no -C option should always work on a running zone. This is odd.

You might leave a
Code:
zlogin -C yourzone

open until the zone hangs to get zones system messages. Also have a look at <zonepath>/root/var/adm/messages* for clues.

What says
Code:
prstat -z yourzone

when it hangs ?

Actually in my absence someone had configured memroy capping for this zone and capped its memory to 2G only .. i changed it to 4G and its running fine since then. Thanx to all you guys for assisting me in resolving the issue. Smilie
