Message Queue is bundled with Solaris 10, and, as a result, is automatically propagated when non-global zones are created (unless you have first removed Message Queue from the global zone). Message Queue cannot be installed in a sparse root zone. When installed or upgraded in a global zone by the Java ES installer, Message Queue, by default, is propagated to non-global zones, unlike other product components.
Application Server is bundled with Solaris 10, and, as a result, is automatically propagated when non-global zones are created (unless you have first removed Application Server from the global zone). When propagated in this way, the bundled Application Server, which is installed in /usr, cannot be upgraded by the Java ES installer in a sparse root zone (by default /usr is read-only). To address this problem, the bundled Application Server must be manually removed from the global zone before installing the Release 5 Application Server in a sparse root zone.
Sun Cluster can only be installed in a global zone. Sun Cluster is not supported in non-global zones.
