‐x deny-zbe-clone Option

This option denies a zone boot environment (ZBE) clone, updates the ZBE, and mounts it as active boot environment.

By default, if either of the following are true, the selected zone boot environment is cloned and the clone is attached. The original zone boot environment continues to exist.

  • The selected zone boot environment is associated with another global zone boot environment.

  • The selected zone boot environment is an orphaned boot environment that is not associated with any global zone boot environment.

If the -x deny-zbe-clone option is used during attach or migration of a solaris zone, the chosen zone boot environment is updated in place and mounted as the active boot environment without cloning.

Note:

You can only use the -x deny-zbe-clone option on an inactive zone boot environment. To mark a boot environment inactive, see Chapter 4, Administering Boot Environments in Creating and Administering Oracle Solaris 11.4 Boot Environments.
