> Could you mention any other way please? Any mechanism that can transfer data between two hosts on metal can also transfer data between two guests. FTP. HTTP. rsync. UUCP. Piping tar across ssh, or rsh, or netcat. NFS, provided you have an external filer that both guests can see (you can use the NFS client in zones, but cannot run a server). Likewise with SMB/CIFS. IMAP, POP-2, or POP-3, whether via a central server or one hosted on one of the guests. Opening an ssh session into each guest from the same laptop and cutting and pasting data (possibly using uuencode/uudecode). Writing a letter to a distant friend who uses telnet to access one of the guests and asking that he type the contents of the letter into a file. I'm sure I could come up with more, but hopefully this helps. > On 4 Jun 2014 22:08, "Robert Mustacchi" <[email protected]> wrote: > > > On 6/4/14 8:54 , Ganapathy S A via smartos-discuss wrote: > > > Thanks Robert, for mentioning the caveat.
