The question "if I am in a non-global zone, how do I know what the hostname of the global zone is" has been asked before on this alias. I will summarize the answers that I remember.
By default - and by design - a method does not exist. The global zone administrator can make it possible for non-global zone users to discover the hostname of the global zone. For example, the global zone administrator could put the global zone's hostname into a file which is accessible by non-global zone users. However, the hostname of the global zone can change, or the non-global zone could be moved to a different computer. In those situations, the global zone must update the contents of that shared file.
