How to Delete a Zone Configuration

You must be the global administrator in the global zone to perform this procedure.

   To create the role and assign the role to a user, see Using the Solaris Management Tools With RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Basic Administration.

   • Use the -F option to force the action:

     global# zonecfg -z a-zone delete -F

   • Delete the zone interactively by answering yes to the system prompt:

     global# zonecfg -z a-zone delete Are you sure you want to delete zone a-zone (y/[n])? y
