Issues Highlighted by the zonep2vchkTool

The zonep2vchk tool produces the following main categories of information when you run the various checks:

  • Issues that can be addressed with a specific zone configuration or with configuration changes in the global zone

  • Identification of functions that cannot work inside a zone

For example, if an application sets the system clock, that ability can be enabled in a solaris zone by adding the appropriate privilege to the zone. However, an application that accesses kernel memory cannot run in a solaris zone. The output distinguishes between these two classes of issues.

By default, the zonep2vchk tool prints messages in human readable form. To print messages in machine parsable form, use the ‐P option. For more information, see the zonep2vchk(8) man page.
