Correct. > So I moved the zoneroot for the zone to the root filesystem.

They can be on the root file system; it's been tested to work that way, and with zone roots on a separate shared UFS partition, and with an unshared UFS partition, and with zone roots on dedicated UFS partitions. For that last case, you must include "-m /:<path>:ufs:<zonename>" directives to tell lucreate where to locate the alternate dedicated UFS partition, or it'll fail. > Making boot environment <sol-nv-92> bootable. > ERROR: unable to mount zones: > zoneadm: zone 'watt': "/usr/lib/fs/lofs/mount > /.alt.tmp.b-nMf.mnt/storage/users/watt/app > /.alt.tmp.b-nMf.mnt/zone/watt/lu/a/app" failed with exit code 33 That looks like an internal error (_possibly_ related to "add fs" entries that lucreate is having trouble digesting). It ought to work; report it as a bug. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <james.d.carlson at sun.com> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677
