If you created an Oracle Solaris 10 system archive from an existing system and use the –p (preserve sysidcfg) option when you install the zone, then the zone will have the same identity as the system used to create the image.
The –c option can be used to include a sysidcfg file to use in configuring the zone after the installation completes. To install a solaris10 zone, use a sysidcfg file in the command line. Note that a full path to the file must be supplied.
# zoneadm -z s10-zone install -a /net/machine_name/s10-system.flar -u -c /path_to/sysidcfg
The following sample sysidcfg file uses the net0 network name and timezone to configure an exclusive-IP zone with a static-IP configuration:
system_locale=C terminal=xterm network_interface=net0 { hostname=test7 ip_address=192.168.0.101 netmask=255.255.255.0 default_route=NONE protocol_ipv6=no } name_service=NONE security_policy=NONE timezone=US/Pacific timeserver=localhost nfs4_domain=dynamic root_password=FSPXl81aZ7Vyo auto_reg=disable
The following sample sysidcfg file is used to configure a shared-IP zone:
system_locale=C terminal=dtterm network_interface=primary { hostname=my-zone } security_policy=NONE name_service=NIS { domain_name=special.example.com name_server=bird(192.168.112.3) } nfs4_domain=domain.com timezone=US/Central root_password=m4qtoWN
The following sample sysidcfg file is used to configure an exclusive-IP zone with a static IP configuration:
system_locale=C terminal=dtterm network_interface=primary { hostname=my-zone default_route=10.10.10.1 ip_address=10.10.10.13 netmask=255.255.255.0 } nfs4_domain=domain.com timezone=US/Central root_password=m4qtoWN
The following sample sysidcfg file is used to configure an exclusive-IP zone with the DHCP and IPv6 option:
system_locale=C terminal=dtterm network_interface=primary { dhcp protocol_ipv6=yes } security_policy=NONE name_service=DNS { domain_name=example.net name_server=192.168.224.11,192.168.224.33 } nfs4_domain=domain.com timezone=US/Central root_password=m4qtoWN
