What am I missing?
Lori, I have a few questions. First, what OS are you running? The built-in support only exists in nv right now. When you say "zone root", what do you mean? Is the z1 zonepath a dataset or did you do something special to make z1's {zonepath}/root into a dataset? We don't support the latter yet. Is the parent of the z2 zonepath a dataset? When you installed z1, did it tell you it was creating a dataset? If not, then you don't have the zfs datasets set up correctly for this to work. Would both zonepath datasets be in the same pool? As an FYI, I just tried a clone on b95 and it worked fine. Thanks, Jerry _______________________________________________ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
