Yes, you want this.


  Does Sun support the migration of zones from one machine to another
via this technique?  Is there an official position?
 

A note that Sun Cluster 3.1 08/05 offers what appears to be similar to 
what you describe - so seems to be a common way to go with current 
capabilities...

Hi,

This procedure was changed in the release notes.

Modifying /etc/zones/index or the zonname.xml is unsupported. 

Keep in mind, that the comments in these files tell you to keep your hand off.

Kind regards

Re: [zones-discuss] query re zones and trusted solaris

 What is the impact on the use of non-global zones and trusted Solaris?
 
 i.e. if I install trusted Solaris, are there any restrictions on the use 
 of non-global zones, expecially with respect to networking?

In effect, you can't use any independent zones on a Solaris system
with TX (Trusted Extensions) installed.

Each zone on a TX system represents a security label.  The system as a
whole (the global zone and _all_ of the non-global zones) appears as a
unified system with multiple labels to the user.  This means that
zones on a TX system are essentially an implementation detail, and
can't be used to create independent Solaris environments.

 One more Q: does stateful IPF work if I'd connect e1000g0-3 to
 a LACP-capable Switch and combine the ifcs using Solaris 10 1/06
 link aggregation to a logical, aggregated interface?

Yes, assuming that driver is supported for aggregation.  In that case,
you'll have the 'ipf' module plumbed atop the 'aggr0' driver, so
you'll have a single stream.

If you were to use the older Sun Trunking solution, it would work only
if there were a single IP stream plumbed for the trunk.

The situation is a bit complicated, and you should talk with the
Rampart team to get some help with it.

The non-global zones can have a mix of shared network connectivity and
local IP addresses.  The latter are typically used for multi-level
services contained within a zone, but could be used for other things.

For the shared IP address(es), packets are distinguished by the IP
security label option.  Each zone has a label, and the label on the
packet maps it to a particular zone.

Re: [zones-discuss] patching a full non-global zone solaris 10 1/06

2006-05-12 Thread Enda o'Connor - Sun Microsystems Ireland - Software Engineer

Hi Peter
I know that there are problems with the patch clusters at present
see bug-id

6407693 06.04.01 S10 Recommended Cluster has an incorrect patch install order

basically 119254-19 is being installed before it's required patches, 
which leads to it not installing.


Possibly this might have caused some problems for you

Do you have a log of the recommended cluster installation?

I have installed this patch to whole-root zones and not seen any issues, 
I suspect that somehow the patch utiltis patch dod not install before 
118712?


Enda

I seen calls in sunsolve that seem similiar and they point to patch

Customer is at release 19 on the global zone.

So, is this a known issue or if not what is the correct procedure to
patch a  full non-global zone
