zone reboot you never have to reboot the platform to do stuff to zones, and the reboot time for a zone is 10 seconds on an Ultrasparc II single-cpu system. On a T-series machine it's about 5 seconds.

If you have only 2 drives and you understandably want to have those mirrored, slice them and make a separate dg or zpool for the zone roots. You can throw other stuff in that zpool/dg such as home directories but not the Solaris OS. I wouldn't play games with sticking /opt (and certainly not /var) in there since that's inherited/copied by local zones. While you can get away with using the root pool/dg for zone roots and it will indeed let you and you can boot the zone, come time to use Live Upgrade you will find it doesn't work. Even adding patches in the regular manner has trouble with zone root on platform root. ________________________________ From: veritas-vx-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu<mailto:veritas-vx-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu> [mailto:veritas-vx-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu<mailto:veritas-vx-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu>] On Behalf Of William Havey Sent: Friday, March 05, 2010 8:56 AM To: veritas-vx@mailman.eng.auburn.edu<mailto:veritas-vx@mailman.eng.auburn.edu> Subject: [Veritas-vx] Simulator 5.1 and Solaris 10 zones http://support.veritas.com/docs/345258 This technote is on the need to set a service group attribute "ContainerInfo". It doesn't say how, only what. Neither does the Admin Guide say how-to. The Simulator.fails to accept any values for Name, Type, and Enabled.
