Hi, It's generally not possible to move a zone around between the two distributions. We have very different models for how zones should work. In SmartOS, we have sparse zones which means that the global zone provides the contents of things like /lib and /usr. However, in OmniOS, those are provided by the zone, but are mostly tied to the kernel. Further, the general design of a zone in the OmniOS world, based on my understanding, is that packages are installed into /usr and /usr is writeable. In our world, that is not true and packages are installed into another prefix. What you might want to do is create a delegated dataset that contains your data, but not programs, and move that around instead.
