40.2 Location of Oracle Solaris Zone Information in the UI

You can select any target that is a child or a parent of the zone (virtual platform, host, or server) and the zone will appear in the Navigation pane of the target.

The Virtualization Platform is the container on which zones are running. A global zone and all associated zones appear in a Zone Virtualization Platform page. A global zone is represented by a virtual server as well. Each non-global zone (virtual server) and kernel zone has its own Virtual Server page that displays details specific to that zone.

The following options are available on the All Targets page:

  • Click Virtualization Platform to see the list of virtual platforms. You can click any virtual platform in this list to open the virtual platform's home page.

  • Click Virtual Server to see the list of virtual servers.You can click any virtual server in this list to open the virtual server's home page.
