Review the zonestat command: zonestate - q physical - memory -R high -z -p -p "zones" 10 24h 60m Select the option that correctly describes the information that is displayed by this command.

The correct answer is E. It is a sample of dbzone's physical memory usage taken every 10 seconds and 24-hour period. Option E correctly identifies that the command samples physical memory (specified by the physical-memory resource filter) at a 10-second interval over a 24-hour duration - which maps directly to the 10 24h 60m arguments at the end, where 10 is the sampling interval in seconds…

BIt is a sample of dbzone's CPU, virtual memory, and networking utilization.
CIt is a sample of dbzone's CPU, virtual memory, and networking utilization.
DIt is a sample of dbzone's physical memory usage taken every 10 seconds and 24-hour period.
EIt is a sample of dbzone's physical memory usage taken every 10 seconds and 24-hour period.

Explanation

Option E correctly identifies that the command samples physical memory (specified by the physical-memory resource filter) at a 10-second interval over a 24-hour duration - which maps directly to the 10 24h 60m arguments at the end, where 10 is the sampling interval in seconds and 24h is the total run duration.

Why the distractors fail:

A is wrong because it says the sample is taken "every hour" - the 60-minute value (60m) is the reporting interval, not the sampling interval; samples actually occur every 10 seconds.
B and C are wrong because they claim the command monitors CPU, virtual memory, and networking - the -q physical-memory flag explicitly restricts output to physical memory only.
D appears textually identical to E in this question, suggesting a formatting error; in a well-formed version, the difference would likely hinge on whether "24h" refers to duration or report frequency - the -R high flag reports the highest utilization seen across samples, confirming a sampling-then-aggregating workflow over 24 hours.

Memory tip: Break the trailing three arguments of zonestat into a rhythm - sample interval → total duration → report interval (e.g., 10 24h 60m = "sample every 10s, run for 24h, print a report every 60 min"). The resource filter (-q physical-memory) always tells you what is measured, and those three numbers tell you when and how often.
