[zones-discuss] A Virtual Router/Switch for Virtual Machines?

I apologize if this has been discussed, as I am relatively new to this forum. I would like to create a network of containers under a single global zone. Can I do this without hitting the physical network? I envision the ability to create virtual routers and switches, allowing one to create

Manish, Wee Yeh is correct. The zonemgr doesn't do anything that would cause your ssh to the global zone to disconnect. I test with ssh sessions to my global zone all the time and never encounter that problem. Brad On Tue, 2007-01-30 at 11:25 +0800, Wee Yeh Tan wrote: Manish, I have not

Hello Tony, The usage that you specified below will place your zone root in /zones/m1. At this point in time there is no storage containment management within zonemgr for the non-global root mount point. (e.g. /zones/m1) If you wish to limit the storage of that mount point to 5GB then you

Sorry for the delay in getting back. The problem is indeed in ssh (http://www.ssh.com/). I followed the suggestion to use PuTTy and set the keepalive parameter to 15 seconds. Now I am able to create zones without problem. Thanks Manish This message posted from opensolaris.org

John's point is correct. I was focusing exclusively on the zone mount point because it has a unique limitation. As John points out you can add a zfs filesystem to the non-global zone and apply limitations to that filesystem. In fact, you can add a legacy mode zfs file system through zonemgr.

Hi. We have a zone currently setup on one of our Solaris 10 servers, but it wasn't configured quite properly. Is there a way to go back and add an inherited dir to a zone that's already configured and has been running for a couple of weeks? Thanks This message posted from opensolaris.org

I just got a chance to start playing with the capped memory resource controls in build 56. At first blush, this looks to be *very* good stuff. My initial testing included some very basic single process memory hog tests and multiple process mmap(..., MAP_SHARED,...) tests. In each case, the

To my knowledge, the inherit-pkg-dir resource cannot be changed after the zone has been installed. If you want to use binaries placed in those dirs, you may want to use the fs resource of zonecfg. Say absolute-path is the dir you wanted to inherit. zonecfg -z zone zonecfg add fs zonecfg:fs set
