Hi there,

I have a quick questions for the experts. My SB1K's Solaris 10 install
is set with Kernel Cage eneabled... I was looking up on documents about
this, and only found mention of DR Kernel Cage. Is it the same thing? If
so, then why would I need that on a workstation with probably no "live"
swapable components? I read in one of the forums, opensolaris I think,
that DR Kernal Cage would probably slow the machine down, and actually
disable memory interleaving... So, should I disable it? I have been
unable to put 8GB of RAM in this machine (heck, even 6GB) and I'm
wondering if this Kernal Cage wouldn't be the cause (far fetched, and
probably unrelated , but you never know)...

What do you guys suggest?
