Question Patching zone

Hi everyone,

I have a container which includes 5 zones. I would like to patch only 2 of them with the latest recommended patch bundle.

1) Could it be done by installing Recommended Patch Cluster on those 2 zones? And after rebooting them?

2) May patching only those 2 zones affect the global zone or other zones? I remember them as all inheriting some main directories from the global zone.

3) Is it better to patch the global zone with all non-global zones? How to do that?

4) Is there anyone who has experienced some difficulties after patching a zone?

Smilie thanks for help...

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.

It takes no options and returns no values. ATTRIBUTES
