Near as I can tell, the only way to get AFS in a solaris zone is to run afsd in the global zone. This is because zones are not full virtualization, but merely isolation from other processes and the fair-share scheduler to allocate resources to the zones. I have not tried it, but it seems like it should work.
The couple "caveats" i've found with running AFS in the global zone...
1) UID-associated tokens are associated across all zones (including the global.) PAGs work fine, but I've got a couple things that rely on UID association...
2) To get /afs to appear as /afs in all of the zones, you use the a loopback mount. However, since this loopback mount doesn't look like it's in AFS in the zone, PIOCTLs don't work. Anyone think of a workaround?
