Thank you sir.  I had forgotten, overlooked, or other wise failed to try doing 
a -F to force the attachment.  I tried that and it shows as installed, then was 
able to boot it.

Before that I got these errors:

zoneadm -z myzone attach

[solcon3/root] zoneadm -z myzone boot

zoneadm: zone 'myzone': must be installed before boot.

I don't understand the missing / not installed on source errors as these two 
servers were created from the same image so there should not be any differences.

I will see what happens with the third server.
