Hmmm, I have been doing this for a long time (though on nevada) with no
problems. If this document is correct it looks like Sun has shot itself in the
foot and released ZFS to Solaris 10 with a zery large bug. Is UFS safe???

If this document is correct it looks like Sun has shot itself in the foot and released ZFS to Solaris 10 with a zery large bug. Is UFS safe??? There isn't a run-time issue but rather the issue is around *upgrading* of such non-global zones. Currently, neither Live Upgrade nor traditional upgrade (in Solaris 10 or Solaris Express) correct handle zones with root file systems on ZFS. This will be fixed although I don't know in which build/release of these products. The work around today is to uninstall the zones on the system, then perform the upgrade, and then reinstall the zones. dsc
