Applying Recommended Patch Cluster to Whole Root Zone
Hi there,
Apologies if this question has been asked and answered already but I've not been able to find the thread.
Question: Is it possible to apply the Solaris 10 Recommended Patch Cluster to a whole root (non-global) zone locally? I.E. apply the patch cluster from the non-global in single-user mode without having to do it from the global zone.
Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
N

The 10_Recommended update failed on 3 of 191, which was patch 119254-73 (the 1st 2 patches were skipped).

scha_cluster_getzone
scha_cluster_getzone(3HA) Sun Cluster HA and Data Services scha_cluster_getzone(3HA)
NAME
scha_cluster_getzone - zone name access function
SYNOPSIS
cc [flags...] -I /usr/cluster/include file -L /usr/cluster/lib -l scha
#include <scha.h>
scha_err_t scha_cluster_getzone(char **zonename);
DESCRIPTION
The scha_cluster_getzone() function returns a string that identifies the zone from which the function is called. If you call this function
in a non-global zone, the zone name and the node name are returned, in the format nodename:zonename. If you call this function in the
global zone, only the node name is returned. The node name is not necessarily the same as the Solaris system name. The function returns an
error status. If successful, the function also returns a string that contains the node name and the zone name in the location that is
pointed to by the zonename argument.
If the call fails, the zonename argument is set to NULL. The caller of scha_cluster_getzone() is responsible for freeing the memory that is
allocated for the returned string by using the standard C library function free(3C). Freeing the memory is required only if the function
succeeds.
RETURN VALUES
The scha_cluster_getzone() function returns the following values:
0 The function succeeded.
nonzero The function failed.
ERRORS
SCHA_ERR_NOERR The function succeeded.
See scha_calls(3HA) for a description of other error codes.
EXAMPLES
Example 1 Using the scha_cluster_getzone() Function
scha_err_t err_code;
char *zonename;
err_code = scha_cluster_getzone(&zonename);
...
if (zonename != NULL) free(zonename);
