Restrictions for a Failover Zone

The zone path of a zone in a failover configuration must reside on a highly available local file system. The zone must be configured on each cluster node where the zone can reside.

The zone is active on only one node at a time, and the zone's address is plumbed on only one node at a time. Application clients can then reach the zone through the zone's address, wherever that zone resides within the cluster.
