No, you either create a new BE directly via beadm based on your current BE like so: beadm create <name of the new BE you want to create> This creates a new BE which is identical to what you're currently running. Or, you create a new BE based off of an existing BE snapshot thusly: beadm create ben...@snapshot <name of the new BE you want to create> That's all there is to it. man beadm is your friend :-) Cheers, -- Glenn _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
