The clock is handled by the kernel. There is a single Solaris kernel instance shared by all zones. Having several zones competing to adjust the time would be at least inefficient and probably the source of many subtle or not so subtle issues.
That's the reason why the global zone is by default the only one allowed to set the clock.
Should you want to grant this possibility to a non global zone, just add the sys_time privilege to the zone:
Just make sure no more than one zone is using this privilege at any time.

Hi all,
We have some files are under 744 permissions and the the owner is say owner1 and group1.
Now we have another user owner2 of group2, owner2 can remove files of the owner1 and the permission of those files are 744, unix admin told us he did some config at his side so we can do that.
