Hi,
I need to monitor cpu load averages of both the global and the local 
zones, but I'm experiencing some problem

-in the GZ I can't find an option to report cpu and memory usage of 
the single processes when running prstat with -Z

-if I understand correctly the cpu load of each LZ is actually the cpu 
load of the GZ. Is this true? In this case is there a way to have the 
*local* cpu load using something else than prstat?

-first and foremost: how is the load average calculated? Am I correct 
if I assume that on a N-cpu server the full utilization is 
represented by a load average of N ? Do heavy memory and I/O usage 
affect the load average? (in my experience in linux the load average 
measure doesn't seem to have the slightest correspondence to the 
server responsiveness or slowness).

Thanks,
        Nico
