Hi Stoyan,
Thanks for your response.

But the following behavior is contradictory to the one I mention earlier:
1) I install my product completely on both global and non-global zones.
2) I remove the product from global zone
Then, the product is removed only from the global zone and not from
non-global zone.

Regards,
Murali

hello Murali,

the manual incorrectly states that "-G" can be used with pkgrm, however
this cannot be done. i think this is the correct behavior:

"pkgrm cannot remove a package only from the global zone if the package
is also installed in a non-global zone, or remove a package from any
subset of the non-global zones."

to keep installations clean you may want to install all "custom"
applications in non-global zones if possible and use the global zone for
"administration" purposes only.

greetings,

Stoyan
