N1 Grid Service Provisioning System 5.0 User's Guide for the Solaris Plug-In

Attach Procedure

This procedure is similar to the create procedure, but it does not create the zone. Instead, the procedure attaches to an existing local zone on the host. This procedure creates a Container component in the provisioning software database and installs a remote agent on the existing local zone. The attach procedure is useful for times when a tool other than N1 Grid Service Provisioning System created the zone. For example, you might use the attach procedure when a zone has been created directly through Solaris APIs or by another software management application.
