You *can* but you *shouldn't*.

In general, and I don't recall if I have seen a "Best Practice" on
this or not, if you are using a zpool for multiple datasets for an NG
Zone you should not use the dataset that is at the root of the zpool,
but build child datasets. The issue is not necessarily ZFS figuring
out how / when to mount the dependent datasets, that works fine, it is
the interaction with both the Zones infrastructure and Live Upgrade
(if you are going to ever do any of that). I have had all sorts of odd
issues with hierarchical zfs datasets and NG Zones and LU.

The layout I have been using, and have not had any issues with Live
Upgrade or patching, is the following:

zpool mountpoint=none
zpool/zfs(zone root) mountpoint=/zones/fred/root (where fred is the zonename)
zpool/zfs(application) mountpoint=/zones/fs/fred/ and a lofs
mount into the NG Zone
zpool/zfs(data) mountpoint=/zones/fs/fred/ and a lofs mount into
the NG Zone
etc.

The above came about after many, many different configurations were
tried (and most failed). We adopted NG Zones before they were
supported by LU, and rolled out NG Zones on ZFS before that was
supported by LU. A long, hard path to where we are now.

Lao Tsao;

It is not my intention to do a concurrent mount.

Instead one system will relinquish the zone and pool gracefully and the
other system will import it.

Only upon a primary system failure, will the second system do a force
import. (it's a form of poor man cluster).

Re: [zones-discuss] Solaris Zones on ZFS Filesystem or Dataset

Frank;

Firstly, thanks very much for the pointers!

Is there a way to set cachefile=none in a zpool that has already been
created?

I also googled the -u/-U option and thanks very much for the tip!

Two questions;

Firstly, can I create another filesystem (dataset) within the webpool e.g.
say webpool/webdata and assigned it as a dataset to the webzone? Would that
be considered a bad practice as it is a form cascading mount?

It should work, but keep in mind
Zfs is not build for shared by two host, but with zpool controlled by host1 one 
can force imported to host2 resulting in corrupted zpool

[zones-discuss] Solaris Zones on ZFS Filesystem or Dataset

2011-05-01 Thread Steven Sim

Hello All;

I have been asked to create a zone on a shared LUN which will enable us 
to detach and attach the zone onto another system (exactly same hardware 
architecture).


So I have create a ZFS Pool and specified the zonepath to be on root 
filesystem of that pool


e.g.

zfs create -m /zones/webzone webpool 

The above creates a ZFS pool called "webpool" and mounts to /zones/webzone.

I have then in zonecfg specified the following

zonecfg:webzone>  # zonecfg -z webzone
webzone: No such zone configured
Use 'create' to begin configuring a new zone.
zonecfg:webzone> create
zonecfg:webzone> set zonepath=/zones/webpool
zonecfg:webzone> set ip-type=exclusive
.
.
.

Upon a need to detach, I will shutdown the zone and detach as follows ..

# zoneadm -z appzone detach

And then deport the ZFS Pool webpool

#zpool deport webpool

On the other system, I would then

#zpool import webpool

And start the Zone (assuming of course the zone XML file has already 
been imported and created on the 2nd node).


Is the above the best way to do things?

Warmest Regards
Steven Sim
