When non-global zones are installed, you can use the custom JumpStart program to upgrade. Only two profile keywords should be used in the profile, the install_type and root_device keywords.
Because some keywords affect non-global zones, some keywords cannot be included in a profile. For example, using keywords that add packages, reallocate disk space, or add locales would affect non-global zones. If you use keywords that adversely affect non-global zones, these keywords are either ignored or prevent the upgrade from being completed. For a list of keywords that should not be used in a profile, see the following table.
