Here's a decent guide: building in a zone

• List of disks: echo | format (look for disk and name)
• zpool create poolname diskname
  eg. zpool create zonepool c2t1d0
• Create ZFS filesystems for zone:

  zfs create -o compression=on -o mountpoint=/zones zonepool/zones
  zfs create -o sync=disabled -o atime=off zonepool/zones/oidev

• 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”)
