Share Balance Between Zones

You can use zone.cpu-shares to assign FSS shares in the global zone and in non-global zones. If FSS is the default scheduler on your system and shares are not assigned, each zone is given one share by default. If you have one non-global zone on your system and you give this zone two shares through zone.cpu-shares, that defines the proportion of CPU which the non-global zone will receive in relation to the global zone. The ratio of CPU between the two zones is 2:1.
