It doesn't look for me as install on ZFS. I've specified size of ZFS at the time of creation and had to follow some naming conventions when pointing virt-install to ZFS:- --file /dev/zvol/dsk/pool/snv81-dsk where only part of path:- pool/snv81-dsk has been created by myself. I understand , that you may be using symlink,but in this case how "-s 16" is supposed to work. > -l /opt/isos/solarisdvd.iso > > > When the virtinstall command is executed it starts > well and boots in to the > virtual machine. and generates the diskimage.
