Re: [zones-discuss] set physical=e1000g0

2009-06-12 Thread Kevin Pan
Thank you guys for your answers! Regarding this networking problem, I think I 
don't have time to investigate into it and I have decided to deploy on Solaris 
10 instead.  The changes in OpenSolaris is too overwhelming and even Sun cannot 
catch up with the documentation (for example, sparse zones is no supported in 
OpenSolaris but the OpenSolaris documentation advises using the 
inherit-pkg-dir). I'd prefer to wait for OpenSolaris features to be 
incorporated into the next version of Solaris 11.

With respect to the issue you noted, it's not clear with the details
you provided whether you will see a difference with Solaris 10.  You
need to provide more details of what you're trying to do.  For example
if you have only one physical interface, then creating an exclusive-IP
zone is impossible without using OpenSolaris and its virtual NIC (VNIC)
capability.

Yes, at this time sparse-root zones are not supported in OpenSolaris
however there is work underway on how best to support them in the
future or perhaps better stated, how best to support the attributes of
sparse-root zones that make them useful.  The OpenSolaris documentatin
advises about using inherit-pkg-dir because it reflects the older model
but that doesn't mean the whole-root model isn't supported either.

Hi Kevin,

Can you post a log of what you dig and what response
you got?

I assume that e1000g0 was not already plumbed in the
global zone?

Rgds,

Jon

Hi,

I have installed OpenSolaris 2009.06, and tried to:
add net
  set physical=e1000g0
... does not work

I also tried hme0, bge0, bge1 all didn't work.

The IP-type is exclusive.

Can anyone please help? I would also like to set up an exclusive-IP zone with 
an externally-visible IP address that is either assigned by the external DHCP 
server or pre-assigned to the zone. Thanks!
