You can also use Solaris Container Manager if you don't wish to build something. http://www.sun.com/software/products/container_mgr/ It will give you one place to look for host, pool, zone, and project utilization. Thanks, Mike Zoram Thanga wrote: 5082299 RFE: More per-zone kstats may

[zones-discuss] zones and inodes

2006-08-24 Thread Michael Barrett
How do inodes work on zones? If your investigating running out of inodes within a single zone, do you run the ncheck command from the global zone on the partition the zone in question is mounted on? Does this mean a disk partition that is being used by multiple zones has a higher chance of

Re: [zones-discuss] simple way to limit resources

2007-02-22 Thread Michael Barrett
You can attach your zones to static or dynamic pools that will control the CPU utilization of them. You can weight zones via the share concept within the same pool to determine which zone is more important within a given pool. You can also control the inband and outband network traffic of

[zones-discuss] using a zfs pool as a zone's home dir

2007-04-23 Thread Michael Barrett
When you tell a local zone to use a mount point that is actually a zfs file system as it's home directory, does the local zone think it's a ufs or does it know it's a zfs? Note this is _not_ me importing a legacy set file system into a zone as a zfs type file system. Thanks, Mike

[zones-discuss] NFS zones via file based zpools or lofi/loopback

Say you create a zpool based on a file that lives on a NFS mount. Then you mount that zpool to a local mount point and give it to your zone to live on. I'm assuming that under the covers this is just another version of this loopback method: http://blogs.sun.com/jph/entry/containers_on_nfs
