Operating Systems Solaris Applying Recommended Patch Cluster to Whole Root Zone Post 302478914 by bluescreen on Thursday 9th of December 2010 07:15:54 AM

You should apply the patch to the global zone in single user mode. The patch software is smart enough to know there are zones on the system and will patch those zones as well. When the patch completes, perform a reconfiguration reboot if documented in the patch installation instructions.

I used this method on the last 2 Solaris CPUs.
