Re: [zones-discuss] whole root zones in nv_98?
Hi Menno, That's what I was looking for. Thanks!

John, OpenSolaris 2008.05 has introduced a new zone brand, ipkg, which is different from the native zones in Solaris 10. (I'm not familiar with Zone Manager, so I don't know if it supports ipkg zones.) 2) Since I don't have any inherit_pkg_dir entries when I use the - t s argument, am I creating a full zone by default? No, the ipkg brand has no concept of sparse root or whole root zones. ipkg zones are not sparse, but still smaller than the traditional whole root zones in Solaris 10. See Dan Price's Field Guide to Zones in OpenSolaris 2008.05 (http://blogs.sun.com/dp/date/20080512 ) for more information.

[zones-discuss] whole root zones in nv_98?
Hi, I recently tried to use zonemgr 1.8.1 to install a whole root zone (for a database) on nv_98, and it errored out: -bash-3.2# ./zonemgr-1.8.1.sh -a add -t w -n ultra1z3 -z /zones -P extrap01ate -I 192.168.1.203|skge0|24|ultra1z3 Checking to see if the zone IP address (192.168.1.203) is already in use...IP is available.

So, here's the zone spec: -bash-3.2# more /root/.zonemgr/zone1197 create set zonepath=/zones/ultra1z3 set autoboot=true remove inherit-pkg-dir dir=/lib remove inherit-pkg-dir dir=/usr remove inherit-pkg-dir dir=/sbin remove inherit-pkg-dir dir=/platform add attr set name=comment set type=string set value=Zone ultra1z3 end add net set address=192.168.1.203/24 set physical=skge0 end verify commit -bash-3.2# It appears that something has changed since Sol10 (and maybe earlier versions of OpenSolaris with the way the default zone spec is defined.

Re: [zones-discuss] cloning zone with ip-type exclusive?
As it turns out, I overlooked a bit of logic in the zonemgr enhancements I was making. After fixing the script changes, it appears that cloning a zone then applying exclusive IP stack to the new zone works. Thanks to all who replied.

[zones-discuss] cloning zone with ip-type exclusive?
Hi, I am trying to clone a zone from a master that has an exclusive IP stack, and specifying an exclusive IP stack for the new zone. I'm using a modified zonemgr scripts (mods will be submitted to the zonemgr project), and the new zone ends up with a shared stack. Is cloning an exclusive stack supported?
