Quote:
There are two type of zone which can be installed into the global zone and they are whole root zone and sparse root zone
2.Exact difference between sparce root and whole root???

Quote:
In case of sparse root zone there are limited file system which are installed apart from that there are other which are inherited from global zone where in you do not have write access. In case of whole zone it do not share solaris file system with global zone. Means all the OS file systems are local in case of whole root.

In case of sparce zone the non –global zone share the file system with global zone. Only the basic file systems which are required is installed in the non global zone and rest file system is shared form global zone

LEARN ABOUT SUNOS

zcons

zcons(7D)							      Devices								 zcons(7D)

NAME

       zcons - Zone console device driver

DESCRIPTION

       The  zcons character driver exports the console for system zones. The driver is comprised of two "sides:" a master side with which applica-
       tions in the global zone communicate, and a slave side, which receives I/O from the master side. The slave side is available in the  global
       zones.

       Applications must not depend on the location of /dev or /devices entries exported by zcons. Inside a zone, the zcons slave  side is fronted
       by /dev/console and other console-related  symbolic links, which are used by applications that expect to write to the system console.

       The zcons driver is Sun Private, and may change in future releases.

FILES

       /dev/zcons/<zonename>/masterconsole

	   Global zone master side console for zone <zonename>.

       /dev/zcons/<zonename>/slaveconsole

	   Global zone slave side console for zone <zonename>.

       /dev/zconsole

	   Non-global zone console (slave side).
