===== Zones =====

==== Basic ====
Here's a decent guide:  [[http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Building+with+oi-build|building in a zone]]

== Create ZFS pool for zones ===
  * List of disks:  ''echo | format'' // (look for disk and name) //
  * ''zpool create poolname diskname'' \\ // eg. ''zpool create zonepool c2t1d0'' //
  * Create ZFS filesystems for zone: <code>zfs create -o compression=on -o mountpoint=/zones zonepool/zones
zfs create -o sync=disabled -o atime=off zonepool/zones/oidev</code>
  * Create zone configuration: \\ // (remember NIC name from disabling in nwam) // <code>zonecfg -z oibld
create
set autoboot=true
set zonepath=/zones/oidev/oibld
set ip-type=exclusive
add net
set physical=e1000g1
end
exit</code>
  * Install the zone: ''zoneadm -z oibld install''

=== Initialize the zone's basic local config ===
  * Make the zone "ready": ''zoneadm -z oibld ready''
  * Populate the zone's sysidcfg: <code>cat <<EOF > /zones/oidev/oibld/root/etc/sysidcfg
terminal=xterms
network_interface=PRIMARY {dhcp protocol_ipv6=no}
security_policy=none
name_service=NONE
nfs4_domain=dynamic
timezone=UTC
root_password=NP
EOF</code>

  * Boot the zone with:  ''zoneadm -z oibld boot''
  * Log into the zone with: ''zlogin -C oibld''
  * Change the root password to blank (by hitting return twice for password)

=== Set up DNS ===
  * Populate /etc/resolv.conf and chown it to netadm:netadm
  * Change the hosts line in /etc/nsswitch.conf (add "dns" after "files")
