Starting with the Oracle Solaris 10 8/11 release, the ZFS file system has the following installation enhancements:
You can use the text–mode installation method to install a system with a ZFS flash archive.
You can use the Live Upgrade luupgrade command to install a ZFS root flash archive.
You can use the Live Upgrade lucreate command to migrate a UFS boot environment or a ZFS boot environment to a ZFS boot environment with a separate /var file system.
