Hi Jack,
OpenSolaris only supports whole-root zones. See the Zones in OpenSolaris
<http://opensolaris.org/os/community/zones/faq/#os_diff> FAQ for the
details on why.
Therefore, you need to install MySQL and GlassFish in the non-global zone.
You have to manually configure the non-global zone's networking. This
blog entry on zones <http://blogs.sun.com/observatory/entry/zones> may
be helpful to you.
Regards,
Brian

dear all,
I've installed mysql and glassfish packages in my OpenSolaris 2009.06
installation in VirtualBox. Then I created a non-global zone (I think it is
sparse-root, by default).
Within the non-global zone, mysql & glassfish are unavailable. Actually I
wanted to confine them to hv them run in non-global zone not global zone.
Questions:
1. would the non-global zone hv access to mysql & glassfish install if I've had
created the non-global zone 1st THEN downloaded/installed the packages from Package
Manager?
2. Or by creating a whole root zone would have solved the problem?
3. Networking issue: leaving my non-global zone as it is, I tried to use pkg to get
and install the mysql & glassfish packages. But it came out error stating it
could not find the package server. Obviously, it is networking problem within the
non-global zone whereby it can't locate and connect to the Internet WHILE the
global zone has no such network problems. Does the non-global zone follows the dns
configurations of the global zone upon creation or I've to manually configure it
and how?
thanks in advance,
jackling
