Canceling a Configuration Session
Two zonecfg
subcommands enable you to halt the process any time while you are modifying property and resource settings. These subcommands can be used in both default
and live
modes of property configuration:
-
cancel
Subcommand -
This command discards the changes you just made to properties of a resource. The command applies only to resource configuration.
zonecfg:zonename: resource> resource configuration commands zonecfg:zonename: resource> cancel zonecfg:zonename>
Canceling a resource reconfiguration nullifies the changes you set only for that resource. If you exit the
zonecfg
session, other changes you made to other properties can still apply. -
reload
Subcommand -
The command discards any uncommitted changes and retrieves the configuration from a stable storage. You can issue this command only from the main zone prompt.
zonecfg:zonename:> configuration commands zonecfg:zonename: resource> resource configuration commands zonecfg:zonename: resource> end ... zonecfg:zonename> reload Are you sure you want to reload (y/[n])?
This command returns the zone to its original status at the beginning of the
zonecfg
session before you began configuring properties. See Canceling a Modification and Restoring Saved Settings.
