Hi:

    I am investigating a situation where one server seems to have gotten
really sluggish all of a sudden. I keep seeing the following warning in
/var/adm/messages. I need to know if it is related to the machines behavior.
Does anyone know what it means? What exactly is mapped at xf4010000?

Thanks,

Krish

Its bizzare that the message begins with the first 7  letters of the
alphabet . Are u sure it hasnt been hacked ?

It's only bizarre if the hostname isn't abcdefg as the entry states.

You need to work out what "kstl" is. It appears not to be 
generic Solaris (as far as I can tell, ICBWT) - an 
additional driver, possibly? Do you have any unusual 
hardware attached to the system?
