Live Upgrade For ZFS With Non-Global Zones Installed

This chapter provides an overview and step-by-step procedures for migrating a UFS (/) root file system to a ZFS root pool.


Note - Migrating from a UFS root (/) file system to a ZFS root pool or creating ZFS boot environments with Live Upgrade, a feature of Oracle Solaris, is new in the Solaris 10 10/08 release. When you perform a Live Upgrade for a UFS file system, both the command-line parameters and operation of Live Upgrade remain unchanged. To perform a Live Upgrade on a system with UFS file systems, see Part I, Upgrading With Live Upgrade of this book.
