Re: [zones-discuss] upgrading and zones
These links might help to add a little bit more to the explanation (this is my collection of all time favorite OpenSolaris zones related links here): http://blogs.sun.com/jerrysblog/entry/updating_zones_on_opensolaris_2008 http://blogs.sun.com/jerrysblog/entry/zones_on_opensolaris_2008_11 http://blogs.sun.com/dp/entry/a_field_guide_to_zones http://blogs.sun.com/observatory/entry/zones http://blogs.sun.com/observatory/en_US/entry/preconfiguring_zones http://blogs.sun.com/observatory/entry/zones_and_dns -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
Re: [zones-discuss] upgrading and zones
Also, another important caveat / missing piece that I noticed is missing from all of the OpenSolaris Indiana Sun blogs and documentation I've looked at so far: to do resource caps on CPU and RAM memory in OpenSolaris I think you need to install the SUNWrcap package first like this: # pkg install SUNWrcap I couldn't get resource capped zones to install in a brand new Indiana install when I first started using OpenSolaris back in May 2008 and it took me a week to figure that one out. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
