[zones-discuss] V890 - Dual Core Processor
Hi Gurus Can we allocate Virtual processors to individual zones.

Re: [zones-discuss] Interfaces to automate zone system
Hello,
I highly recommend that you use version 1.8.1 instead of 1.8 as
it includes many bug fixes that are not in 1.8. Having said that,
mounting a configuration file used by the global zone into a
non-global zone can be a security risk. I wouldn't recommend it.
Here is a example to illustrate how you could readonly mount a file
via lofs from a global zone into a non-global zone during zone
creation through the zone manager with the -r flag.
# z=`uname -n`
# cp /etc/hosts /etc/${z}
# zonemgr -F -a add -n z1 -z /zones -P pw -r "/etc/${z}|/etc/global"
# cksum /etc/hosts
2265366463 1183/etc/hosts
# zlogin z1 "cksum /etc/global"
2265366463 1183/etc/global
# zonemgr-a info -n z1
Zone information for zone z1
zonename: z1
zonepath: /zones/z1
brand: native
autoboot: true
bootargs:
pool:
limitpriv:
scheduling-class:
ip-type: shared
inherit-pkg-dir:
dir: /lib
inherit-pkg-dir:
dir: /platform
inherit-pkg-dir:
dir: /sbin
inherit-pkg-dir:
dir: /usr
fs:
dir: /etc/global
special: /etc/globalhostname
raw not specified
type: lofs
options: [ro,nodevices]
attr:
name: comment
type: string
value: "Zone z1"
Hope that helps!
Just as an FYI... the next version of the zonemgr which I hope
to complete soon has a new unified mounting syntax that works
for all the main supported filesystems available today. It is
still in alpha so I haven't yet posted on the site. If you are
interested in trying it out, send me a separate e-mail and I
will gladly send you a copy.

Thanks Konstantin and Zoram for clarification. Can you point out a document to help me to configure zone network in detail? where did you get the solaris beta? It is S10U5 build_02, not beta build, just for Sun internal testing. You can't get S10U5 build externally until it is released to customer, maybe several builds later.

Re: [zones-discuss] prstat weirdness
Hi Martin, Did you check your process with pmap tool ? As you know RSS is the resident set size of memory, it means total of the shared libraries and processes, addressed in to memory for this process. If you use pmap command for suspicious process, you can see which process and libraries shared the memory.

Hi, Please send "/var/adm/messages" lines, when you try to boot your zone, also please send "ifconfig -a" command print Thanks Serkan This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org

You are better off using an IP address on the same subnet. The address you assign to the non-global zone zone1 is how it is accessed by other systems, and if it is on a different subnet, it may not be reachable by those systems.

[zones-discuss] How to configure network for zone?
Hi all, I followed the instruction "Q: How do I create a zone?" in http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zones/faq/#sa_create, created a zone named zone1. But zone1 can't boot, it is said some error about IP address. My system is s10u5_b02 X86. I want to use shared-IP mode to configure zone1, because I have only one NIC. Could you give me some hints to configure it? Here is the detailed information about my system: -- bash-3.00# cat /etc/release Solaris 10 5/08 s10x_u5wos_02 X86 Copyright 2007 Sun Microsystems, Inc.
