52<strong>Storage</strong> Foundation <strong>and</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>Availability</strong> <strong>Solutions</strong> support for Solaris ZonesSoftware limitations of <strong>Storage</strong> Foundation support of non-global zonesCannot remove a volume configured in a non-global zoneAfter a volume node is configured in a Solaris non-global zone, the node cannotbe removed in certain Solaris releases. Solaris patch 122660-10 resolves this issue.Administration comm<strong>and</strong>s are not supported in non-global zoneAll administrative tasks, such as resizing a volume, adding a volume to a volumeset, <strong>and</strong> file system reorganization, are supported only in the global zone.Consequently, administrative comm<strong>and</strong>s, such as fsadm, fsvoladm, <strong>and</strong> vxassist,<strong>and</strong> administrative ioctls are not supported in the non-global zone by both VxFS<strong>and</strong> VxVM.A cluster-mounted VxFS file system is not supported as the root of anon-global zoneThe root of a non-global zone cannot currently be on a cluster-mounted VxFS filesystem.QIO <strong>and</strong> CQIO are not supportedQuick I/O <strong>and</strong> Cached Quick I/O are not supported by VxFS in non-global zones.Package <strong>and</strong> patch installation in non-global zonesTo ensure that the package <strong>and</strong> patch updates applied to <strong>Veritas</strong> products in theglobal zone are also propagated to the non-global zone, ensure that the non-globalzones are in a bootable state (installed/running). For example, to update thesoftware installed in a system, the disk group containing the root file system ofthe non-global zone should be imported <strong>and</strong> the file system should be mountedat the time that you run patchadd, pkgadd, or the CPI installation scripts.Package <strong>and</strong> patch removal with non-global zone configurationsIf non-global zones are part of the system configuration <strong>and</strong> the VRTSodm packageis installed, ensure that /dev/odm is unmounted in each non-global zone prior toVRTSodm package removal or product uninstallation. This ensures there are nonon-global zone odm module references that might prevent the global zone fromunloading the odm module.You can unmount /dev/odm in the non-global zone with the following comm<strong>and</strong>s:global# zlogin myzonemyzone# umount /dev/odm
