Hi,

>>I'm not sure I understand what problem is being solved by attempting to install multiple OS's in the same pool.

Some points:

The OpenSolaris installation program does not support creating more than one slice on disk -- so if you have only one disk you only have on pool.

So if you want to install more distributions on a machine with only one disk (for testing for example) they all have to be installed in the same pool

regards

Bern

That doesn't mean you can't fake one up outside of beadm as suggested below however that's not a supported method for creating BE's. Plus the ability to
do this will probably be impacted going forwad as more BE validation is
added to beadm. We will likely not support BE's created outside beadm once
that validation work is complete. (see bug 891)

I see. So what is the recommended method of using the same zpool for
multiple OS?
Is it by creating a BE using beadm and overwriting its content? Or is
this completely unsupported, and we should have one pool for each OS?

I don't know of any support for installing multiple OS's in the same pool.

I'm not sure I understand what problem is being solved by attempting to install multiple OS's in the same pool.
