This procedure enables you to add read-only access to CD or DVD media in a non-global zone. The Volume Management file system is used in the global zone for mounting the media. A CD or DVD can then be used to install a product in the non-global zone. This procedure uses a DVD named jes_05q4_dvd.
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.
global# svcs volfs STATE STIME FMRI online Sep_29 svc:/system/filesystem/volfs:default
global# svcadm volfs enable
global# volcheck
global# ls /cdrom
You will see a display similar to the following:
cdrom cdrom1 jes_05q4_dvd
global# zonecfg -z my-zone zonecfg:my-zone> add fs zonecfg:my-zone:fs> set dir=/cdrom zonecfg:my-zone:fs> set special=/cdrom zonecfg:my-zone:fs> set type=lofs zonecfg:my-zone:fs> add options [ro,nodevices] zonecfg:my-zone:fs> end zonecfg:my-zone> commit zonecfg:my-zone> exit
global# zoneadm -z my-zone reboot
global# zoneadm list -v
You will see a display that is similar to the following:
ID NAME STATUS PATH BRAND IP 0 global running / native shared 1 my-zone running /export/home/my-zone native shared
global# zlogin my-zone
my-zone# ls /cdrom
You will see a display similar to this:
cdrom cdrom1 jes_05q4_dvd
my-zone# exit
Tip - You might want to retain the /cdrom file system in your non-global zone. The mount will always reflect the current contents of the CD-ROM drive, or an empty directory if the drive is empty.
global# zonecfg -z my-zone zonecfg:my-zone> remove fs dir=/cdrom zonecfg:my-zone> commit zonecfg:my-zone> exit
In a sparse root zone, /usr is mounted read-only from the global zone. You can use this procedure to add a writable directory, such as /usr/local, under /usr in your zone.
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.
global# mkdir -p /usr/local
global# mkdir -p /storage/local/my-zone
global# zonecfg -z my-zone
zonecfg:my-zone> add fs zonecfg:my-zone:fs> set dir=/usr/local zonecfg:my-zone:fs> set special=/storage/local/my-zone zonecfg:my-zone:fs> set type=lofs zonecfg:my-zone:fs> end zonecfg:my-zone> commit zonecfg:my-zone> exit
This procedure is used to export home directories or other file systems from the global zone into non-global zones on the same system.
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.
global# zonecfg -z my-zone zonecfg:my-zone> add fs zonecfg:my-zone:fs> set dir=/export/home zonecfg:my-zone:fs> set special=/export/home zonecfg:my-zone:fs> set type=lofs zonecfg:my-zone:fs> set options=nodevices zonecfg:my-zone:fs> end zonecfg:my-zone> commit zonecfg:my-zone> exit
