How does this negatively impact you or other users? As of Solaris 11
Express, this requirement means that you have to run 'zfs create' once
to create a ZFS filesystem that will be the parent of an arbitrry number
of zones.
I personally would not advocate a configuration where each zone is not
on its own file system because a disk hog in one zone can deny service
to other zones.
Be very careful here. If you allocate all of your Zones from a
single zpool and do NOT use quotas (and reservations) you can have one
Zone run the others out of disk space. Does the automatic (under the
covers) zfs create in Solaris 11 also automate setting reasonable
quotas and reservations ?
I don't want folks who are less familiar with ZFS to make that mistake.
While I was working for a Fortune 10 company and
introduced zones early in Solaris 10's life, I ensured that every zone
had its own file system on a SVM soft partition. This approach worked
well for many years, but took a significant amount of effort to
automate. The integration of ZFS and Zones simplifies this type of
architecture greatly.
We have used almost exclusively sparse root zones; for the space
efficiency, the global patching model, and the security of a read only
OS. I will be sorry to see the option of a sparse root zone go away.

In particular, the ZFS-based upgrade mechanism is substantially easier to use and works much better than what we had for S10.

I think exactly this issue is listed in the 133 release notes, and it states running a 2nd attach will work. if our marvellous opensolaris.org system would work you could read the 133 release notes here on the indiana discuss alias: http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=124275 That seems to be it.

Re: [zones-discuss] ERROR: no active dataset. w/ migration from Indiana snv_125 to Indiana snv_127
If I remember correctly, zbe datasets' mountpoints should be set to legacy. rpool/var/zones/oracle-1/ROOT/zbe's mountpoint isn't legacy on your snv_127 system. What was rpool/var/zones/oracle-1/ROOT/zbe's mountpoint property's value on the snv_125 system prior to the zfs send operation?

Thats not a workaround, thats what you have to do if you want to set up an attach by hand. The zone's dataset must be accessible when you do a simple attach (i.e. it must be in the same state as if you'd done a detach followed by an attach on the same system). There are a variety of additional options for attach which allow you to automatically attach from an image made on another system. These options will do the proper setup for you. We have an experimental -r option which can be used for zfs send input but I need to do some more work with it and we need some additional automated tests to make sure it is solid. At this point I'm not really sure how well its working. I need to take some time to work with it further. Jerry ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
