This is one place where he might have a half valid point. There should be some better mechanism to patch a zone without having to bring it up. There may be valid reasons that two particular zones on the same machine cannot run at the same time (or even that a zone on one machine can't be running if another zone is running on another machine; think cluster situations). A patch from the global zone should be able to be installed in a non-running local zone by fiddling with the filesystem. -spp This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
