Two comments:

1. Why not just re-NICE the shadow (or offending procs)
2. Last I heard oracle does not recommend running their procs at differing NICE levels.

Folks,

Does anyone know how to exploit the real-time scheduler in Solaris? I can only find vague references to this on the web.

We're considering using the real-time scheduler for Oracle background processes on our busiest Solaris boxes (that support 2-3k connections). We want to make Unix bias the Oracle background processes for CPU, all other things being equal. We had some consultants suggesting our MTS config wasn't getting the cycles it needed after we called into question their SQL (which is too long a story for me to get into -- I'll begin ranting about big consulting companies. :)

Thanks,
Steve
