Sure. One other solution might be to have the zone-proxy-client
instances simply do nothing in the face of a missing connection to the
zone-proxyd (perhaps it could write a single SMF log entry to that
effect, but leave the client service online)
Packaging operations would still fail in the clients, pointing to
something that needed to be fixed in the global zone anyway, rather than
a problem that could conceivably be fixed by the zone administrator.
Once the zones-proxyd was online again, would it have a means of
informing the client that it was back and that the client could resume
normal operation?
cheers,
