Hi Mike,
Filesystems must [1] be administered and managed from the global zone.
So, as you suggest, if multiple zones share a filesystem, one can use up
resources another would like to use. Your general UFS is shared unless
exclusively allocated to a zone by the global administrator. This goes
for zonepath as well as other FSs mounted into a zone.
Just FYI: the need for one-zonepath-per-fs can be met today with UFS/SVM (use soft
partitions if there will be many zones) and, in the near future, with ZFS.

[1] Exceptions include: ZFS via delegation into a zone and reservations;
file systems created on lofi mounted files; file systems created on raw
devices configured to the zone and created within that zone (if the file
system allows that).
...and NFS mounts, which must be managed by the non-GZ's.

How do inodes work on zones? If your investigating running out of
inodes within a single zone, do you run the ncheck command from the
global zone on the partition the zone in question is mounted on? Does
this mean a disk partition that is being used by multiple zones has a
higher chance of running out of inodes?
