Ahh, Now it makes sense The error was ( I had to change the server name to protect the innocent). zoneadm: /zones/x: No such file or directory could not verify zonepath /zones/x because of the above errors. zoneadm: zone xx failed to verify I didn't even think of that as I did do a shutdown and booted back to single user.

Re: [zones-discuss] Question on new Nov patch cluster for a zoned system.
Hi If the cluster has 127111 or 127112 ( sparc | x86 KU ), and if 120011-14 is also being installed, then a reboot is required after applying 120011-1 4, otherwise corruption will occur, if the cluster does contain 127111|127113 then get the latest cluster as these have been removed, pending a fix to the patch tools.
