A few comments, Solaris 11 is exclusively using ZFS for the system, so JBOD + ZFS mirroring is the recommended way to get performance and security (vs local hardware RAID). Snapshots is also a feature ZFS provides out of the box.
/var separation is the standard, /usr separation is not supported and would make the system unbootable as /bin is a symbolic link to /usr/bin.

Dear all,
I have a Local zone , where users feel that performance is not good.
Is it wise to collect the inputs from the local zone rather than taking from the global zone.
And also Can I tune from Global zone , so that it will reflect in local zone.
