Examples of adding VxFS, ZFS, SVM, UFS, lofs, Raw volumes and disk devices to non-global zones. Resource management in solaris zones : CPU shares, capped CPU, Dedicated CPU assignment Resource management in solaris zones : Dynamic Resource pools Resource management in solaris zones : Capped memory Be default when you create a solaris zone, it will take up all the CPU and memory resources from the global zone. There are ways to limit the memory utilized by zones. The resource capping daemon … [Read more...] about Resource management in solaris zones : Capped memory

Resource management in solaris zones : Dynamic Resource pools
Resource pools in solaris 10/solaris 11 provides a mechanism to assign processor set and scheduling class to non-global zone. The resource pool framework is as shown in the figure below. The dynamic resource pools comes in extremely useful when you have a variable load on zones and you want to dynamically change the resource allocation to these zones. Unlike the capped CPU allocation, dynamic resource pool allocation to zones is online and can be changed any time online. Note : Resource pool … [Read more...] about Resource management in solaris zones : Dynamic Resource pools

How to clone a solaris 11 zone
In the last post we saw how to install and configure a basic solaris 11 zone. We can use the ZFS clone feature to clone the existing zone to create new ones. This saves us the time to install and create new zone everytime with all the new softwares that are common to all the zones. As seen in the last post we have a zone named zone01 already created on the global zone. First step to clone any zone is to create a profile and store it as a template. Login to the non-global zone and use … [Read more...] about How to clone a solaris 11 zone
How to create a zone in solaris 11
In oracle solaris 10, zones was introduced which gave us an ability to create isolated environments for applications that can run on a single machine. Solaris 11 has added a lot of new features to the zones technology. Let us get started and see how we can create a zone in solaris 11. In case you are new to solaris zones refer the post how to create zones in solaris 10 to get started. Pre-requisites : 1. A good laptop/desktop with Solaris 11 virtual machine (VMware workstation or … [Read more...] about How to create a zone in solaris 11
