How to Add or Move a ZFS Storage Pool to an Installed Zone

Ensure that the ZFS storage pool to add or move is created.

Ensure that the storage URI is available on the host system. For more information, see Managing Storage URIs and Shared Storage Resources and the suriadm(8) man page.

Perform this procedure to do either of the following tasks:

Add an existing ZFS storage pool to an installed zone.
Migrate a ZFS storage pool from one installed zone to another.

Assume the root role.

For more information, see Using Your Assigned Administrative Rights in Securing Users and Processes in Oracle Solaris 11.4.

Shut down the zone.

global$ pfbash zoneadm -z zonename shutdown

Detach the zone.
```
global$ zoneadm -z zonename detach
```
The zone moves to the configured state.

Add a new zpool resource and corresponding shared storage resources to the zone configuration.

global$ zonecfg -z zonename
zonecfg:zonename> add zpool
zonecfg:zonename:zpool> add storage URI-string
zonecfg:zonename:zpool> set name=name-string
zonecfg:zonename:zpool> end

Reattach the zone.
```
global$ zoneadm -z zonename attach
```
The Zones framework configures the shared storage resources, imports the existing ZFS storage pool, and assigns it to the installed zone. The zone moves to the installed state.
Boot the zone.
```
global$ zoneadm -z zonename boot
```
The zone moves to the running state.
