NAME
     intrd - interrupt distribution daemon

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/lib/intrd


DESCRIPTION
     The intrd daemon is started at  boot  time  to  monitor  the
     assignments  between  interrupts  and CPUs. If intrd decides
     that the current assignments are imbalanced and  harmful  to
     system  performance,  it  will  generate  and  implement new
     assignments.


     Any notifications will be delivered via syslogd(1M).


     Because intrd dynamically monitors  a  system   for  optimal
     performance,  it  consumes a small amount of CPU  time, even
     on an otherwise idle system. This behavior is normal.

NOTES
     The interrupt distribution daemon is managed by the  service
     management facility, smf(5), under the service identifier:

       svc:/system/intrd:default




     Administrative actions on this service,  such  as  enabling,
     disabling,  or  requesting  restart,  can be performed using
