Non-global zones can't do this on their own via local methods.

However, the global zone administrator can set up arbitrary sharing
between selected sets of non-global zones.  Just create a directory
and export it into the desired non-global zones via lofs.

The alternative is to choose some other means for sharing files --
such as (for example) a web, ftp, ssh, or rsync server running in the
non-global zone.

The LOSF-mounted filesystem is read only in the local zone, this means
it 

is only a one direct sharing. How, if the local zone want to share some
files

to the other zones?

Although one of the CR's (5065254) related to this issue may be fixed in
future, there may be other issues involved, which will need lot more 
testing to
confirm. Currently there are no plans for officially supporting this 
feature.

It is still not a supported configuration. You may run into system

certain cases.

[zones-discuss] Non-global zone and nfs mounts from global zone

2007-08-06 Thread Kari, Sampath K

Hi all,

We see below now works on a machine with Solaris10 update 2 but with
latest patches. If it works that means it is supported or not?

 Q: Can a non-global zone NFS-mount a file system that has been shared
from its own global zone?
A: No. This may be addressed in the future. However, the filesystem can
be LOFS-mounted into the local zone, and, if necessary, the global zone
can export the same filesystem via NFS so that other computers can also
access those files. [August 2005]
