Installing Sun Cluster on ZFS root pools

Hi All!

I have been tasked with creating a clustered file system for two systems running Sol 10 u8. These systems have 3 zones each and the global zone has ZFS on the boot disk. We currently have one system sharing an NFS mount to both of these systems.

The root zfs pool status (on the global zone) looks like this:

Code:

# zpool status
  pool: rpool
 state: ONLINE
 scrub: none requested
config:

        NAME          STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
        rpool         ONLINE       0     0     0
          mirror      ONLINE       0     0     0
            c1t0d0s0  ONLINE       0     0     0
            c1t1d0s0  ONLINE       0     0     0

errors: No known data errors

The zonelist looks like this:

Code:

# zoneadm list
global
zone1
zone2
zone3

Maybe I'm not looking in the right place in the Install Guide but I don't see anything about installing the software on a system that already has ZFS on the root pool.

Does anyone have experience installing/configuring clusters that can guide me on installing the cluster on the root ZFS pool?

Thanks in Advance!

sc_zonesd(1M)						  System Administration Commands					     sc_zonesd(1M)

NAME

       sc_zonesd - Sun Cluster zone administration daemon

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/cluster/lib/sc/sc_zonesd

DESCRIPTION

       The  sc_zonesd  daemon  is a system daemon that is used by Sun Cluster software to track and manage non-global zones. This daemon initially
       starts when the system comes up.

       The daemon runs in the global zone only.

DIAGNOSTICS

       All diagnostic messages are logged through the syslog function.

NOTES

       The sc_zonesd daemon must be started in superuser mode.

       The sc_zonesd daemon is controlled by the SMF service sc_zones. The cluster software requires this daemon to run for non-global	zone  sup-
       port. If the daemon is killed or if the SMF service is disabled, the cluster node will panic.
