OK, I see I've fallen into the "What does running SRSS in a local
zone mean?" trap again.
This question has come up several times, and I honestly don't
understand why.
Looking at it from a very simple standpoint, Zones allows me to
take one computer and make it seem like many. One computer running
separate instances of Solaris as if it were many different
computers. (yes, I know that's not what's going on, but it is made
to seem that way, and from the user standpoint, it is exactly that)
Instead of my old rack full of separate Solaris machines, for
example, I now have a V480, which has a bunch of zones configured,
each of which replaced one of the old machines, duplicating their
functionality in every way. One of those machines served a bunch of
Sun Ray clients. I want a local zone to serve those clients now, as
if it were a standalone machine, with the software installed in the
zone, and related services running in the zone.
Everyone I've talked to who "wants SRSS to run in a zone" is
interested in that.
