About This Solaris How To Guide
This How To Guide instructs users, system administrators, and developers who have experience with Solaris 10 on
proper use of new features which allow a Solaris 10 Container to be moved from one computer to another. The guide
starts with a brief discussion of the need for such functionality and follows with three examples of the use of this
functionality.
Users are guided step-by-step through the process of moving a Container, with code examples and illustrations. After
using this guide, a user should be able to move a Solaris Container by:
•Creating a Container
•Detaching the Container
•Moving the Container to a new computer
•Attaching the Container to the new computer
For thoroughness, code examples are provided for three different scenarios:
•Each system has only one filesystem
•Eachsystem has Containersinstalled onto Solaris ZFS filesystems
•Each system has Containers installed onto Solaris UFS filesystems using Solaris Volume Manager
