Good day,
I'd like to ask for an update on the fix [quote below]:
currently this is not working for VxFS/zfs ( but a fix is in the
pipeline and I have tested the fix on VxFS zonepath.
We hope to release the fix ( 119254/119255 ) in the coming week or two.
Currently, we have the development systems running zones on zfs (root fs);
Yes, I know that we're *not suppose* to do that but our experience has
been great so far
[zfs quotas are a life saver -;) ]
According to infodoc 72099
<http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-9-72099-1> we're
running all the patches listed but when I tried to apply
*120011-14* SunOS 5.10: kernel patch (from the note: kernel patch -
before installing 120011-14
<http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=urn:cds:docid:1-21-120011-14-1>,
you must halt zones.)
it gives you an error since it doesn't read zfs slice to boot the zones.

Also, while I'm on the topic I have 2 more questions/comments:
1. In Solaris 10u4 (08/07) release notes there is a mention of ability
of running Dtrace within a sparse zone (the user space).
Without going too deep, is it possible to do on the earlier releases
of solaris 10 such as 11/06?
2. This is a comment on the usefulness of a zones/zfs combo:
To my surprise, we were able to move the sparse zones between
different arches via a "detach/attach -F" route from *sun4u* (a v240 in
our case) to *sun4v* (a t2000).
Thank you for the great work and I'll be waiting for your responses.

120011/120012 are called deferred activation patches and work by lofs
mounting root and other necessary directories under an alternate root
structure in /var/run.
this is done to enable users to apply these patches to live systems.
I will have a look at the space checking in /var/run, so I just need to
know did the patchadd fail ( leading to corruption ) or did it just
issue an out of space message
# df -k /var/run
Filesystem kbytes used avail capacity Mounted on
swap 20480 20480 0 100% /var/run
Also, why does zones fail to update if zone is on vxfs? Why would it care?

Sorry for any hassle caused.
