SUMMARY: High IO: After 8_Recommended

Hello,

      Apologies for the late response.  It appears that the latest
      8_Recommended was not the problem but it only exacerbated the
      problem.  It seems that the high IOWait was due to one of the
      T3's battery being faulty (which came up in parallel with the
      8_Recommended patching).  There was a previous post on this in
      the list regarding the battery issue:

      Much thanks to Paul Roetman for helping me regarding this.

Regards,

After installing the latest recommended patches for Solaris 8 (117350-04).
Our T3 access became so slow and we're getting high IOWaits.  The filesystem
setup is for forcedirectio.  But before this (108528-27), the system was
fine.

I remember seeing an email in this list about some IO slowness but I'm not
sure if this is related to it since it mentioned that the patch 117000-03
should have fixed it and the latest 8_Recommended has 117000-05 already.

Any help would be great.  Thanks.

Regards, Neil
