solaris containers/zones reboot order

Hi,

I'm running containers/zones on Solaris 10:

SunOS be2900 5.10 Generic_118833-33 sun4u sparc SUNW,Netra-T12

zoneadm list -vc gives:

ID NAME STATUS PATH
0 global running /
1 bvsmapp01 running /zones/bvsmapp01
2 bvsmapp04 running /zones/bvsmapp04
3 bvsmdb01 running /zones/bvsmdb01
4 bvsmapp03 running /zones/bvsmapp03
5 bvsmapp02 running /zones/bvsmapp02
6 bvsmapp05 running /zones/bvsmapp05

The zone ID 3 called bvsmdb01 is the database zone; this needs to be started up before all the other zones following a reboot. All the databases on bvsmdb01 (118 Oracle9i and Oracle10g databases) need to be started up and open before zones 1,2,4,5,6 are started. Otherwise the automatic startup of the applications on these zones will fail - they will not be able to connect to an open database.

All zones are currently set to automatically reboot.

How can I guarantee that the database zone is rebooted first following a full server reboot and that all the databases on that database zone are open and available before the other zones are rebooted?

Thanks,

Jabberwocky

NAME
zprint - show information about kernel zones SYNOPSIS
zprint [-w] [-s] [-c] [-h] [name] DESCRIPTION
zprint(1) displays data about Mach zones. By default, zprint will print out information about all Mach zones. If the optional name is specified, zprint will print information about each zone for which name is a substring of the zone's name. zprint interprets the following options: -w For each zone, zprint calculates how much space is allocated but not currently in use, the space wasted by the zone. -s zprint sorts the zones, showing the wasting the most memory first. -c (Default) zprint prints zone info in columns. Long zone names are truncated with '$', and spaces are replaced with '.', to allow for sorting by column. Pageable and collectible zones are shown with 'P' and 'C' on the far right. Zones with preposterously large maximum sizes are shown with '----' in the max size and max num elts fields. -h (Default) Shows headings for the columns printed with the -c option. It may be useful to override this option when sorting by col- umn. Any option (including default options) can be overridden by specifying the option in upper-case; for example, -C overrides the (default) option -c. SEE ALSO
