Re: [zones-discuss] Zones, Solaris 10 and ZFS...do zones need to sit on rpool ?
Le 6 avr. 09 à 21:12, Paul Davis a écrit : 121430-33 (or higher) supports ZFS root with ZFS zonepaths (each in their own zpools). Been testing this extensively as a POC and it works, lucreate plus patching. This is a really GOOD NEWS !I just want to sing or dance, or anything like that ! Fixed in 121430-33: 6742586 lucreate cannot migrate zone from ufs to zfs if the zone root is at the top of a filesystem 6748777 cannot upgrade u5 with zones on zfs to u6, errors from luactivate 6750930 lucopy fails to copy all files to non-global zones 6759266 lucreate (ufs root) on a system with zone with zfs dataset will fail Yeah !!! We did file bug 6819838 on preservation of mountpoint settings after lucreate when set at the zfs level vs. zpool level, but other than that pleased with the functionality. I believe the restriction is that you MUST use ZFS root and not UFS root w/ ZFS zones. That's cool. Nico ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
[zones-discuss] Zones, Solaris 10 and ZFS...do zones need to sit on rpool ?
Hi all, I'm waiting for some patch to allow non-local zones to be located out of the rpool before upgrading my customer mainframe (s/mainframe/ sf15k/). Is there anybody here who knows if or when it'd be available ? TIA Nicolas ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org

Hi As far as I'm aware the latest Lu patches remove this restriction 121430-xx, but I have cc'ed the zfs team for some guidance. Enda Alexander Skwar wrote: Hi!

Re: [zones-discuss] Zones, Solaris 10 and ZFS...do zones need to sit on rpool ?
Is it not allowed to have non-global zones on an arbitrary zpool? Who says so? I bet there is more to the question than was originally asked. Yes, you can have non-global zones in ZFS starting with Solaris 10 10/08. If you also use Live Upgrade *and* you are using ZFS for your root filesystem then the zoneroots must be in the same pool as your root. If you relax any of these constrains then we relax too :-) There is an open CR for this (don't have it handy) and will be resolved by a patch, Bob ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
