One question: why have a DLIB zone for each volume set? > Just to have an entire matching TGT and DLIB set of your system. or In case you wanted to restore a (PE) PTF in one set of zones that may be accepted in another set. I used to do it that way a long time ago on smaller systems, when I just used an "A/B" set to switch between for running and maintenance. But with many target zones and sysres sets now I relate them all to a single DLIB zone and don't accept maintenance until it has been running for 6 months. So I really don't see a need for more than one DLIB zone unless you have some burning desire or need to accept maintenance very aggressively. And of course I still get ASAP alerts for PE PTFs that have been accepted now and then, but if they are running in production for 6 months I just live with that and wait for a fixing PTF to be available.
