I can't speak to this on Illumos, so I can't be of much help if its not using the same utilities. However on OmniOS if I can see what the zonecfg is, ie pfexec zonecfg -z ZONENAME info or pfexec zonecfg -z ZONENAME export -f FILENAME I may be able to help if there is a discrepancy in how we us it in our datacenter. Also I would try the zadm VNC utility that I meantioned in this thread: I am however not sure if Illumos uses zonecfg and zadm, I believe so, but I've never fired up an Illumos instance (and don't plan to) ------------------------------------------ illumos: illumos-discuss Permalink: https://illumos.topicbox.com/groups/discuss/T749ade692a62789f-M6edec4c00fb934c61a56485e Delivery options: https://illumos.topicbox.com/groups/discuss/subscription
