Description

Presently, if zone.max-processes is set but zone.max-lwps isn't, zoneadmd will calculate a "reasonable" default foe zone.max-lwps. The reverse should be done when max-lwps is set and max-processes is not. This would prevent certain negative behaviors such as a broken app accumulating thousands (perhaps millions) unreaped zombies.
