This section provides examples for deploying Oracle Solaris Zones on shared storage resources.

Example 14-6  Oracle Solaris Zones Using iSCSI-Based Shared Storage Devices

This exercise sets up a sample configuration on an Oracle Solaris 11 server that will provide shared storage via an iSCSI target. We will then configure and install a zone on a second server running Oracle Solaris, and use those iSCSI-based shared storage resources to host a zone.

First, we install the corresponding package, using one of the following pkg install commands. The first command installs the entire multi-protocol storage-server group package. The second command installs only the target support for iSCSI within the common multi-protocol SCSI target (COMSTAR) framework, as described in the itadm(1M) and stmfadm(1M) man pages.

root@target:~# pkg install group/feature/storage-server
root@target:~# pkg install system/storage/iscsi/iscsi-target

Then, create the backing store for the iSCSI targets to be exported from this server. Create three ZFS volumes as the backing store for three iSCSI target logical units, each 10GB in size, stored in the target servers rpool/export dataset with the zfs command.

root@target:~# zfs create -V 10G rpool/export/zonevol1
root@target:~# zfs create -V 10G rpool/export/zonevol2
root@target:~# zfs create -V 10G rpool/export/zonevol3

After setting up the backing store, use the stmfadm command to create target logical units for each ZFS volume. This will give us the corresponding device ID (WWN) for each, which will be used later in the storage URI for iSCSI target discovery on the client host.

root@target:~# stmfadm create-lu  /dev/zvol/rdsk/rpool/export/zonevol1
Logical unit created: 600144F035FF8500000050C884E50001
root@target:~# stmfadm create-lu  /dev/zvol/rdsk/rpool/export/zonevol2
Logical unit created: 600144F035FF8500000050C884E80002
root@target:~# stmfadm create-lu  /dev/zvol/rdsk/rpool/export/zonevol3
Logical unit created: 600144F035FF8500000050C884EC0003

You can view configured logical units with the stmfadm list-lu syntax.

root@target:~# stmfadm list-lu
LU Name: 600144F035FF8500000050C884E50001
LU Name: 600144F035FF8500000050C884E80002
LU Name: 600144F035FF8500000050C884EC0003

You can query for details about configured logical units with the stmfadm list-lu -v syntax.

root@target:~# stmfadm list-lu -v
LU Name: 600144F035FF8500000050C884E50001
    Operational Status     : Online
    Provider Name          : sbd
    Alias                  : /dev/zvol/rdsk/rpool/export/zonevol1
    View Entry Count       : 0
    Data File              : /dev/zvol/rdsk/rpool/export/zonevol1
    Meta File              : not set
    Size                   : 10737418240
    Block Size             : 512
    Management URL         : not set
    Software ID            : not set
    Vendor ID              : SUN     
    Product ID             : COMSTAR         
    Serial Num             : not set
    Write Protect          : Disabled
    Write Cache Mode Select: Enabled
    Writeback Cache        : Enabled
    Access State           : Active

To make the logical unit available to iSCSI initiators, add a logical unit view to the target server with the stmfadm add-view command.

root@target:~# stmfadm add-view 600144F035FF8500000050C884E50001
root@target:~# stmfadm add-view 600144F035FF8500000050C884E80002
root@target:~# stmfadm add-view 600144F035FF8500000050C884EC0003

Now we configure the iSCSI target on the target server. First, enable the iSCSI target SMF service with svcadm enable.

root@target:~# svcadm enable -r svc:/network/iscsi/target:default

Then, create the iSCSI target itself using itadm create-target.

root@target:~# itadm create-target
Target iqn.1986-03.com.sun:02:b62a8291-b89e-41ba-9aef-e93836ad0d6a successfully created

You can query for the details about configured iSCSI targets using either itadm list-target or stmfadm list-target.

root@target:~# itadm list-target -v
TARGET NAME                                                  STATE    SESSIONS

        alias:                  -
        auth:                   none (defaults)
        targetchapuser:         -
        targetchapsecret:       unset
        tpg-tags:               default

root@target:~# stmfadm list-target -v
Target: iqn.1986-03.com.sun:02:b62a8291-b89e-41ba-9aef-e93836ad0d6a
    Operational Status     : Online
    Provider Name          : iscsit
    Alias                  : -
    Protocol               : iSCSI
    Sessions               : 0

The last step is to use suriadm(1M) to obtain the corresponding storage URIs to be used in the zone configuration on the second server. For each logical unit, a local device path entry has been created in /dev. The suriadm command is used to create the iSCSI storage URI.

root@target:~# suriadm lookup-uri -t iscsi /dev/dsk/c0t600144F035FF8500000050C884E50001d0
iscsi://target/luname.naa.600144f035ff8500000050c884e50001

root@target:~# suriadm lookup-uri -t iscsi /dev/dsk/c0t600144F035FF8500000050C884E80002d0
iscsi://target/luname.naa.600144f035ff8500000050c884e80002

root@target:~# suriadm lookup-uri -t iscsi /dev/dsk/c0t600144F035FF8500000050C884EC0003d0
iscsi://target/luname.naa.600144f035ff8500000050c884ec0003

This completes all of the tasks required on the sample server providing the iSCSI target storage.

We can now move on to configuring and installing a zone on the second server using this shared storage provided over iSCSI.

The first step is to install the corresponding package on the client server selected to be the iSCSI initiator.

root@initiator:~# pkg install pkg:/system/storage/iscsi/iscsi-initiator

Next, we use the zonecfg command to configure a zone with a rootzpool and a zpool resource. We will use the three iSCSI target logical units we configured as shared storage resources to host the zone. We will use the iSCSI storage URIs we obtained with suriadm previously, on the target server.

root@initiator:~# zonecfg -z iscsi 
Use 'create' to begin configuring a new zone.
zonecfg:iscsi> create
create: Using system default template 'SYSdefault'
zonecfg:iscsi> set zonepath=/iscsi
zonecfg:iscsi> add rootzpool
zonecfg:iscsi:rootzpool> add storage iscsi://target/luname.naa.600144F035FF8500000050C884E50001
zonecfg:iscsi:rootzpool> end
zonecfg:iscsi> add zpool
zonecfg:iscsi:zpool> set name=data
zonecfg:iscsi:zpool> add storage iscsi://target/luname.naa.600144F035FF8500000050C884E80002
zonecfg:iscsi:zpool> add storage iscsi://target/luname.naa.600144F035FF8500000050C884EC0003
zonecfg:iscsi:zpool> end
zonecfg:iscsi> commit
zonecfg:iscsi> exit

We are now ready to install the zone using zoneadm install.

root@initiator:~# zoneadm -z iscsi install

The new zone hosted on iSCSI-based shared storage resources has been successfully installed and can now be booted using zoneadm(1M) boot.

After the zone has been booted, the zone administrator observes virtualized ZFS datasets and storage pools from within the zone.

Example 14-7  Example Oracle Solaris Zones Using DAS Storage Devices

This exercise uses direct attached local storage devices to configure and install a zone on Oracle Solaris. Note that this method is usually not portable across different hosts.

First, discover the available local disks with the format command and use the suriadm lookup-uri to construct the corresponding storage URIs to be used within the zone configuration.

root@host:~# format

AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS:
       1. c4t1d0 <SEAGATE-ST336704LSUN36G-0326-33.92GB>

Using those storage URIs we configure a zone with a rootzpool and a zpool resource, both representing mirrored ZFS storage pools.

root@host:~# zonecfg -z disk 
Use 'create' to begin configuring a new zone.
zonecfg:disk> create

zonecfg:disk> commit
zonecfg:disk> exit

Now install the zone.

Example 14-8  Oracle Solaris Zones Using fibre Channel-Based Storage Devices

This exercise uses a shared storage device provided over fibre channel to configure and install a zone on Oracle Solaris.

First, discover the fibre channel logical units currently visible to our host by using the fcinfo lu command.

root@host:~# fcinfo lu -v
OS Device Name: /dev/rdsk/c0t600144F0DBF8AF190000510979640005d0s2
        HBA Port WWN: 10000000c9991d8c
                Remote Port WWN: 21000024ff3ee89f
                        LUN: 5
        Vendor: SUN     
        Product: ZFS Storage 7120
        Device Type: Disk Device

Use suriadm lookup-uri to construct a storage URI based on the device path. Remove the slice portion of the device name for the query to retrieve a storage URI representing an entire LU.

root@host:~# suriadm lookup-uri /dev/dsk/c0t600144F0DBF8AF190000510979640005d0
lu:luname.naa.600144f0dbf8af190000510979640005
lu:initiator.naa.10000000c9991d8c,target.naa.21000024ff3ee89f,luname.naa.600144f0dbf8af190000510979640005
dev:dsk/c0t600144F0DBF8AF190000510979640005d0

From the three URIs displayed, we select the luname-only form of the logical unit storage URI for use in the zone configuration.

root@host:~# zonecfg -z fc
Use 'create' to begin configuring a new zone.
zonecfg:fc> create
create: Using system default template 'SYSdefault'
zonecfg:fc> set zonepath=/fc
zonecfg:fc> add rootzpool
zonecfg:fc:rootzpool> add storage lu:luname.naa.600144f0dbf8af190000510979640005
zonecfg:fc:rootzpool> end
zonecfg:fc> commit
zonecfg:fc> exit

We are now ready to install the zone.
