hi
i have solaris 10 as the OS on which there is sun cluster 3.1 which
has oracle and nfs resource groups, there are 2 nodes and one node1
has oracle res group and other node2 has nfs res group seperately,
when cluster was running for 2 weeks,free memory size is decreasing
gradually in node2, at the and we switched nfs res. to node1 and
rebooted but free mem. size did not changed, we rebooted with boot -x
it run without any memory problem then we gave it to cluster with
normal boot, it has run with same problem which system totally has 8
GB memory whose free part is 150 mb that is the problem.

have you ever faced on that kind of problem, any suggestion about
what should i do?

Lack of free memory doesn't necessarily mean you have a memory leak.
Solaris' memory model is "Any unallocated memory is wasted memory".
That means that memory on the free list will get sucked up by processes
as they run until they exit. What are your paging rates?
