Way back in November I experienced multiple panics of two types:
panic: vn_rele (Sun service order #234504)
panic: diskquota (Sun service order #232522)
Sun claimed they were both related to a quota problem, and supplied me with
two patches: quota.o and spec_subr.o. The engineer who supplied the patches
was Kevin Fox.
Very, very, Very, VERY, V*E*R*Y seldom has Sun resolved one of our
problems in a timely fashon. I opened this problem on November 3 and
closed it on January 25. BUT - the fix did resolve our problem, and they
were nice about it.
