Hi, Ed,

Since you're on Solaris 10, lsof for this version of Solaris tells you deleted files. From Vic Abel, the author:

Lsof for recent builds of Solaris 10 will display "(deleted)" if the lsof -X option is specified. Lsof can't do it for Solaris versions below 10 and some very early versions of Solaris 10.
