A. Transitioning From Previous Oracle Solaris 11 Releases to Oracle Solaris 11
You can transition your Oracle Solaris 10 environment to a non-global zone on an Oracle Solaris 11 system by creating a zone archive and migrating the zone archive to an Oracle Solaris 11 system. The following steps describe this process.
Install the Oracle Solaris 10 zone package on your Oracle Solaris 11 system. For example:
s11sysB# pkg install system/zones/brand/brand-solaris10
Copy the zonep2vchk script from your Oracle Solaris 11 system to the Oracle Solaris 10 instance or system to identify any issues that might prevent the instance from running as a solaris10 zone.
s10sys# ./zonep2vchk --Executing Version: 1.0.5-11-15652 - Source System: tardis Solaris Version: Oracle Solaris 10 8/11 s10s_u10wos_17b SPARC Solaris Kernel: 5.10 Generic_147440-01 Platform: sun4u SUNW,Sun-Fire-V440 - Target System: Solaris_Version: Solaris 10 Zone Brand: native (default) IP type: shared --Executing basic checks . .
Create a ZFS file system that will contain the flash archive of the Oracle Solaris 10 system instance, if necessary.
Then, create a NFS share of the ZFS file system on your Oracle Solaris 11 system. For example:
s11sysB# zfs create pond/s10archive s11sysB# zfs set share=name=s10share,path=/pond/s10archive,prot=nfs,root=s10sysA pond/s10archive name=s10share,path=/pond/s10archive,prot=nfs,sec=sys,root=s10sysA s11sysB# zfs set sharenfs=on pond/s10archive
Select an Oracle Solaris 10 instance, which could be a virtual environment or a global zone on a Solaris 10 system. Note the Oracle Solaris 10 system's hostid.
s10sysA# hostid 8439b629
Create an archive of the Oracle Solaris 10 instance that you would like to migrate to a non-global zone on the Oracle Solaris 11 system.
s10sysA# flarcreate -S -n s10sysA -L cpio /net/s11sysB/pond/s10archive/s10.flar
Create a ZFS file system for the Oracle Solaris 10 zone.
s11sysB# zfs create -o mountpoint=/zones pond/zones s11sysB# chmod 700 /zones
Create the non-global zone for the Oracle Solaris 10 instance.
s11sysB# zonecfg -z s10zone s10zone: No such zone configured Use 'create' to begin configuring a new zone. zonecfg:s10zone> create -t SYSsolaris10 zonecfg:s10zone> set zonepath=/zones/s10zone zonecfg:s10zone> set ip-type=exclusive zonecfg:s10zone> add anet zonecfg:s10zone:net> set lower-link=auto zonecfg:s10zone:net> end zonecfg:s10zone> set hostid=8439b629 zonecfg:s10zone> verify zonecfg:s10zone> commit zonecfg:s10zone> exit
Install the Oracle Solaris 10 non-global zone.
s11sysB# zoneadm -z s10zone install -u -a /pond/s10archive/s10.flar A ZFS file system has been created for this zone. Progress being logged to /var/log/zones/zoneadm.20110921T135935Z.s10zone.install Installing: This may take several minutes... Postprocess: Updating the image to run within a zone Postprocess: Migrating data from: pond/zones/s10zone/rpool/ROOT/zbe-0 to: pond/zones/s10zone/rpool/export . . .
Boot the Oracle Solaris 10 zone.
# zoneadm -z s10zone boot
Configure the Oracle Solaris 10 non-global zone.
