Thanks jlliagre


Can you please shed some light in term of difference between all these 4 zones and any link as in how we can configure the native and branded zones?

Branded zones presenting a different OS level interface than the global zone one to applications running inside them.
This can be a different OS release (Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 containers on SPARC) or a whole different OS (Linux zones on x86).

Here are some links that might help:
