I've did some tests with zones on SF25k (sun4u) and on FSC PP2500 (sun4us). The
zones got created separately on each machine as whole root zone, no FS was
inherited from the global zone. The zones root FS have been put on Hitachi SAN
devs, using UFS. Everything was put into a VCS failover group
Hello Lutz,
First, I'd like to thank you for sharing your experience with the community.
I would guess that few people have the resources and need (and time) to
perform those tests.
Are those zones sparse-root or whole-root zones? As you may know, a
sparse-root zone has (almost) no executab
This probably has more to do with the potential for different network
devices (if not plumbed via VCS), and the likelihood of patch miss-

Hello all,
I just wanted to let everyone know that I put together a presentation

include the following:
* Can break out the help info into a man page
* Can add support for multiple languages in the man page
* Can standardi

BTW, I understand trying not to jam the aliases with responses, but I would
suggest that all discussions and voting be done in the open, on the list.
Thank you,

Good timing and this kind of feedback is appropriate for the alias. I've been
thinking about this since my last feature submission. While modifying the
script, I've realized that it's become too big for its own britches. I'm not
