Leap second tonight

All of my Solaris 10 boxes stayed up with the exception of the Oracle  
10g RAC boxes.

db1:~ wschultz$ uname -a
SunOS db1 5.10 Generic_137111-01 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V490

A friend of mine had his RAC boxes reboot as well, similar  
configuration. I've poured through the logs and see normal activity  
until the reboot, nothing suspicious and no reason for the reboot.  
Seems to be specific to Solaris 10 running RAC on this end.
