Alejandro et al:

Looking at loads on our network switch and other network measures seems to show no network-related issues.

Here is the output of iostat and vmstat at a time with it is taking 2+ minutes to start a new Sunray session. It also seems to take a long time to exit a session. However, suspending and re-starting an existing session ... by either removing a SmartCard or suspending a NSCM session with Shift-Pause respond quickly. That fact would seem to confirm that network delays between the Sunrays and the server is not the problem.

root@flare # iostat
   tty        sd2           sd5           nfs1          nfs2           cpu

root@flare # vmstat
 kthr      memory            page            disk          faults      cpu

Can anyone point me to the list of things that happen when a new session is created? Is there a way of somehow timing the steps in that process to see where the delays are occuring?

Hmmm - how about DNS and the authentication service?

Is there a good means of determining how well the authentication service is performing? Or DNS, for that matter ... I can see that DNS is working but don't know to determine if it is slow or not. Is DHCP called each time a new SunRay session is called or does each SunRay only get a new IP address when the UT services are started?


Thanks for your input,

John

Hi, did you check the network speed?
Can you take a iostat and a vmstat ?

Try to restart the server.
