Actually the Oracle Definition is:-
"Oracle Solaris Containers consist of two parts - Oracle Solaris Zones and resource management. Oracle Solaris Zones partitioning technology is the mechanism for isolating applications within Oracle Solaris Containers that are then allocated resources with resource management software and utilities. Although the two parts are distinct, an Oracle Solaris Container must include both. In other words, a zone without resource management is not an Oracle Container and vice versa."
Although it it possible to have multiple zones in a container, speaking to some one from Oracle or Fujitsu is likely to elicit the original response.
In one of the Fujitsu manuals (I think the M5000 one) it does actually say that the terms are interchangeable.
