This system resource enhancement is new in the Solaris Express 8/06 release.
Solaris Zones Boot Enhancements now support boot arguments as part of boot and reboot. The following boot arguments are supported at this time:
-m <smf_options>
-i </path/to/init/>
-s
Boot arguments can be passed in the following ways:
global# zoneadm -z myzone boot -- -m verbose
global# zoneadm -z myzone reboot -- -m verbose
myzone# reboot -- -m verbose
Boot arguments can also be persistently specified by using the new bootargs property in the zonecfg command:
zonecfg:myzone> set bootargs="-m verbose"
This setting will be applied unless overridden by the reboot, zoneadm boot or zoneadm reboot commands.
