The halt procedure is used to remove both the application environment and the virtual platform for a zone. To cleanly shut down a zone, see How to Use zlogin to Shut Down a Zone.
You must be the global administrator or a user with appropriate authorizations in the global zone to perform this procedure.
For more information about roles, see Configuring and Using RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Security Services.
global# zoneadm list -v
You will see a display that is similar to the following:
ID NAME STATUS PATH BRAND IP 0 global running / ipkg shared 1 my-zone running /zones/my-zone ipkg shared
global# zoneadm -z my-zone halt
global# zoneadm list -iv
You will see a display that is similar to the following:
ID NAME STATUS PATH BRAND IP 0 global running / ipkg shared - my-zone installed /zones/my-zone ipkg shared
global# zoneadm -z my-zone boot
If the zone does not halt properly, see Zone Does Not Halt for troubleshooting tips.
You must be the global administrator or a user with appropriate authorizations in the global zone to perform this procedure.
For more information about roles, see Configuring and Using RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Security Services.
global# zoneadm list -v
You will see a display that is similar to the following:
ID NAME STATUS PATH BRAND IP 0 global running / ipkg shared 1 my-zone running /zones/my-zone ipkg shared
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 / ipkg shared 2 my-zone running /zones/my-zone ipkg shared
Tip - Note that the zone ID for my-zone has changed. The zone ID generally changes after a reboot.
Caution - Use this procedure with caution. The action of removing all of the files in the zone's root file system is irreversible. |
The zone cannot be in the running state. The uninstall operation is invalid for running zones.
You must be the global administrator or a user with appropriate authorizations in the global zone to perform this procedure.
For more information about roles, see Configuring and Using RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Security Services.
global# zoneadm list -v
You will see a display that is similar to the following:
ID NAME STATUS PATH BRAND IP 0 global running / ipkg shared - my-zone installed /zones/my-zone ipkg shared
You can also use the -F option to force the action. If this option is not specified, the system will prompt for confirmation.
global# zoneadm -z my-zone uninstall -F
Note that when you uninstall a zone that has its own ZFS file system for the zonepath, the ZFS file system is destroyed.
global# zoneadm list -iv
You will see a display that is similar to the following:
ID NAME STATUS PATH BRAND IP 0 global running / ipkg shared
If a zone uninstall is interrupted, the zone is left in the incomplete state. Use the zoneadm uninstall command to reset the zone to the configured state.
Use the uninstall command with caution because the action is irreversible.
