Reloading a Live Zone Configuration
If the configuration of a running zone changes externally while you are modifying the configuration in either default mode or live mode, the zonecfg commit
command will return an error. Some scenarios where this might occur include another administrator modifying the configuration, modifying resource controls, or changing network parameters of the zone using network administration commands.
If the configuration of a running zone changes during live reconfiguration, use the zonecfg reload
subcommand to load the external configuration changes:
-
If you issue the
zonecfg reload
command in default mode, the command discards any uncommitted changes you have made and reloads the configuration from persistent storage. -
If you issue the
zonecfg reload
command in live mode (the ‐r option), the command discards any uncommitted changes and retrieves an up-to-date live configuration of the running zone.
After the configuration is reloaded, you can repeat the configuration changes and commit.
See How to Recover From a Failure While Committing Live Zone Configuration Changes for an instructions to reload a zone configuration.
