I was asking under the assumption that an upgrade from a minor release or two was supported. Typically if I am moving a S8 or S9 physical into a zone, I really want to do an upgrade (or similar) as well. Not being able to do this in one step is not that big of a deal - after all I do seem to have workable alternatives: 1) On S8 or S9, use live upgrade to upgrade to S10, then install/attach the S10 BE as unbranded. 2) Attach the S8 or S9 BE as a branded zone, then use live upgrade (?) to populate a S10 BE which in turn gets installed/attached as an unbranded zone. I bet I can write a script to make that look like a single command. Then, with time Jerry will follow up with a more elegant solution than duct-tape and chewing gum one I come up with. :) -- Mike Gerdts http://mgerdts.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
