Hi Jason, The Solaris Cluster product (also called Sun Cluster) is an extension of the Solaris Operating System. There is only one operating system on a machine, and by extension there is only one Solaris Cluster set of software running on a machine regardless as to the number of Zones on that machine.
Solaris Cluster currently supports the ability to run applications in zones (but not Oracle RAC). Solaris Cluster does not run inside a set of Zones, because Solaris Cluster is NOT an application. There is an active project to support Oracle RAC running in a zone environment. This new feature will be a "Zone Cluster", which is a virtual cluster where each virtual node is a Zone on a different physical node. The Zone Cluster will be able to support cluster applications in general. From the perspective of the application, the Zone Cluster will appear to be a cluster dedicated to that application.
