The administrator will need to alter the existing infrastructure. The current zoneadm implementation will unshare the root prior to booting the zone. This simply adds protection to stop the global zone from inadvertently re-sharing, and closes a race between zoneadm unshare and zone boot, since the share ownership will change.
