[zones-discuss] getting around live upgrade?

2009-08-03 Thread Katelin Bailey
Is there any known way of bypassing or trimming down what liveupgrade does 
during zone installation? I'd like to speed up the process, which seems lengthy 
for such "lightweight" zones.

This is two ways. I've use
method 1 a lot (because you had to). Method 2 "should work"

1. Delete them before you start and recreate them afterwards.This
should be quicker on ZFS but I've never tried. It depends on how well
the zone configuration is documented and what it does i.e how much
undocumented "customization" has happened.

2. Detach them. Then do the upgrade. Then attach -u them zoneadm(1M). 
Thise may not improve the "overall time" buts get the global zone back
quicker. Again I've never tried this.

Why? 

The machine is usable whilst the LU is happening I use to start it off
and go home. Just let it run overnight. However I've heard on systems
with lots of zones overnight can not be long enough :-(
