Creation of New Boot Environment Fails When Reconfiguring Swap

ERROR: Template filesystem definition failed for -..

ERROR: Configuration of BE failed.

Cause:

The swap slice is being used by a boot environment other than the current boot environment or the source boot environment specified by the -s option and the creation of a new boot environment fails.

Description:

The swap slice cannot be in use by any boot environment except the current boot environment or if the -s option is used, the source boot environment. The boot environment creation fails if the swap slice is being used by any other boot environment whether the slice contains a swap, ufs, or any other file system.

Solution:

Choose a slice for swap following the above guidelines.
