Re: [zones-discuss] upgrading zone and /dev -> /release part 2
Okay, that worked. I eventually got the zone up and running, but I'll admit it was a little difference compared to my Solaris 10 experiences. I think I'll gradually adjust once I get a little more used to the IPS system. And hopefully, sparse zones will be available soon. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org

[zones-discuss] Probs with S8 Branded Zone on b114
Hi all, I'm trying to install a Solaris 8 branded zone on a 280R running SXCE b114. I've downloaded the Solaris 8 zone software version 1.0.1 and installed the SUNWs8brandr and SUNWs8brandu packages from the 1.0/Product directory, followed by the SUNWs8brandk package from the 1.0.1/Product directory. All packages appeared to install OK, except for a warning about a missing S10 Kernel patch which I ignored because I'm running SXCE b114. :-) When I run the zonecfg command to create the branded zone, it all goes pear-shaped: bash-3.2# zonecfg -z vantive_test vantive_test: No such zone configured Use 'create' to begin configuring a new zone. zonecfg:vantive_test> create -t SUNWsolaris8 zonecfg:vantive_test> set zonepath=/zones/vantive_test zonecfg:vantive_test> set autoboot=true zonecfg:vantive_test> verify vantive_test: unknown brand. vantive_test: Invalid document The zonepath will be living on ZFS, but I doubt that's important. Any clues greatfully received!

S8C and S9C do not run on sxce or opensolaris. They can be hosted on Solaris 10, using any filesystem which supports zones, including zfs. -Steve L.

And hopefully, sparse zones will be available soon. If there were other negative differences, please let us know-- things like the sysidtool should be basically the same.

[zones-discuss] Creating a new zone using latest OpenSolaris 2009.06
Hi, I have installed the latest OpenSolaris 2009.06 and tried to create a new zone.

Re: [zones-discuss] Creating a new zone using latest OpenSolaris 2009.06
hey kevin, this is a known issue that is being fixed. (i thought the fix had already been pushed to the public repo, but i guess it hasn't happened yet.) there is a pretty straitforward workaround. do a pkg image-update, boot to the new image, and then your zone install should work. ed On Thu, Jun 04, 2009 at 06:21:39PM -0700, Kevin Pan wrote: > Hi, > > I have installed the latest OpenSolaris 2009.06 and tried to create a new > zone.

Re: [zones-discuss] Can you plese let me know whether OpenSolaris 2009.6 support sparse zonnes?
I don't understand your statement that OpenSolaris 2009.06 does not support sparse zone. I would appreciate if you could clarify what you meant by "We don't have sparse zones in 2009.06..." I thought by using the commands "add inherit-pkg-dir", "set dir=/xxx" (for /lib, /platform, /sbin and /usr) would create so-called sparse-zones on OpenSolaris 2009.06. In fact, I have just successfully doen this a few mintues ago. The difference between Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris is that, on Solaris 10 by using the "create" would automatically inherit all the 4 directories mentioned above, and by using "create -b" would create a "whole-root" zone. On OpenSolaris, however, by using "create" (without the -b option) would be creating whole-root zones as it does not inherit any directories from the global zones. It would be nice also if you could explain what is the rationale behind this difference.

Solaris 10 is based of SRV4 packaging and opensolaris is based off of ipkg. ipkg will enable us to do lots of things we couldn't with SRV4 packaging. one of the things we will be able to do is have different contents installed in the global zone and non-global zones. hence inherit-pkg-dir doesn't make a whole lot of sense in this context. ed ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org

The labeled brand used by Trusted Extensions in opensolaris is still using the inherit-pkg-dir property, but this is described in bugzilla 9191 labeled zones should no longer rely on sparse-root functionality and a fix will soon be putback to the /dev repository for 2009.06. Since the labeled brand shares much of its configuration with the ipkg brand, bugzilla 567 should be integrated after 9191. --Glenn ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
