Hi,

I would use FSS aswell, as the underlying resources arent that meaty. Let the FSS decide, also later on you can always enforce shares if you want.

The next question is whether you want sparse / or non sparse zones ? i.e. non-sparse = complete copy of the OS or sparse when you are sharing the global zone's core directories e.g. lib /bin etc etc. I would opt for non-sparse due to the sizr of your root drives / applications.

After that, Shared / Exclusive ip ?? I would imagine, due to the level of resources on your server, you would go for shared-ip. Makesl ife far easier.

So, an example of the zone config would be :-

Code:

create -b
set zonepath=/zones/roots/app-svr
set autoboot=true
set bootargs="-m verbose"
# Zone CPU Resources
set scheduling-class=FSS
# Zone Network Configurations
set ip-type=shared
add net
set address=X.X.X.X/25
set physical=qfe1
set defrouter=X.X.X.X
end
add attr
set name=comment
set type=string
set value="Application Server"
end

Put all that into a file call app1.cfg, then assuming the hostname is app-svr :-

Code:

# zonecfg -z  app-svr  -f app1.cfg
# zonecfg -z  app-svr   verify

# zoneadm list -icv    - lists all zones
# zoneadm -z app-svr install
# zoneadm -z app-svr  ready
# zoneadm -z app-svr  boot

# zlogin -C app-svr

:-) Easy.

NAME

       txzonemgr - Trusted Extensions Zone Manager Configuration Utility

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/txzonemgr

DESCRIPTION

       The  txzonemgr shell script provides a simple, menu-based GUI wizard for creating, installing, initializing, and booting labeled zones on a
       system on which Trusted Extensions is enabled. The script also provides menu items for networking options, name services options, and  mak-
       ing  the global zone a client of an existing  LDAP server. By default, all zones are configured to use the same name service and IP address
       as the global zone.

       txzonemgr is run by roles granted in the Zone Management Rights Profile, or by root in the global zone. It takes no options and returns	no
       values.
