This is incredible.

I was working this morning on a server where we put zonepath on ZFS...
Why did we that ?

Hey !  To have something SIMPLE.  And there was NO documentation which  
said "YOU MUST NOT". Instead documentation gave informations on what  
to do (legacy mount, ...) or what should not (don't try to LU, ...).

Even today documentations are not so clear....take a look :


http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-1592/gcmcz?l=en&a=view&q=Do+Not+Place+the+Root+File+System+of+a+Non-Global+Zone+on+ZFS
"should not", "might result"

This one is clearer :
http://opensolaris.org/os/community/zones/faq/#cfg_zfsboot
...but it comes from "open side".

Even if I could understand how complex it may be to make a so big  
step....I can't believe the next Solaris release would come with ZFS  
root for the global zone and nothing for non-global !!  However, I'm  
waiting for ZFS root since a long time !

Update-on-attach ?  In U6 ? Are you sure ?
