No, at least currently as the prerequisite for a kernel zone is to be running Solaris 11.2 and the prerequisite for a host to support kernel zones is also Solaris 11.2.

But tomorrow if sol11u3 releases, can i create kernel zone with both sol11u2 and sol11u3 provided i have sol11u3 in global zone.
More than likely. One feature of kernel zones is the ability to be patched independantly so I see no reason why you won't be able to get a Solaris 11.2 kernel zone running on top of a Solaris 11.3 host, and reciprocally, a Solaris 11.3 kernel zone running on a Solaris 11.2.

Supporting branded zones didn't stop, Solaris 11 supports Solaris 10 branded zones. This support is still true for a kernel zone which can host Solaris 10 branded zones.

Hi All,
Is there a max number of slabs that can be used per kernel module? I'm having a tough time finding out that kind of information, but the array 'node_zonelists' (mmzone.h) has a size of 5. I just want to avoid buffer overruns and other bad stuff.
Cheers,

NAME
native - native branded zone
DESCRIPTION
The native brand uses the branded zones framework described in brands(5) to run zones installed with the same software as is installed in
the global zone. The system software must always be in sync with the global zone when using a native brand.
SUB-COMMANDS
The following native brand-specific subcommand options are supported in zoneadm(1M).
attach [-u] [-b patchid]...
For native zones, zoneadm checks package and patch levels on the machine to which the zone is to be attached. If the packages/patches
that the zone depends on from the global zone are different (have different revision numbers) from the dependent packages/patches on
the source machine, zoneadm reports these conflicts and does not perform the attach. If the destination system has only newer dependent
packages/patches (higher revision numbers) than those on the source system, you can use the -u option to update the attached zone to
match the -revision packages and patches that exist on the new system. With -u, as in the default behavior, zoneadm does not perform an
attach if outdated packages/patches are found on the target system.
For native zones, one or more -b options can be used to specify a patch ID for a patch installed in the zone. These patches will be
backed out before the zone is attached or, if -u was also specified, updated.
install [-a archive] | [-d path] [-p] [-s] [-u] [-v] [-b patchid]...
The native brand installer supports installing the zone from either the software already installed on the system or from an image of an
installed system running the same release. This can be a full flash archive (see flash_archive(4)) or a cpio(1) or pax(1) "xustar" ar-
chive. The cpio archive be compressed with gzip or bzip2. The image can also be a level 0 ufsdump(1M), a path to the top-level of a
system's root tree, or a pre-existing zone path.
With no options the zone is installed using same software as is running the global zone.
To install the zone from a system image either the -a or -d is required. Either the -u or -p option is also required in this case.
-a archive
The path to a flash_archive(4), cpio(1), or pax(1) "xustar" archive, or a level0 ufsdump(1M), of an installed system. cpio archives
may be compressed using gzip or bzip2.
-b patchid
One or more -b options can be used to specify a patch ID for a patch installed in the system image. These patches will be backed
out during the installation process.
-d path
The path to the root directory of an installed system. If path is a hyphen (-), the zonepath is presumed to be already populated
with the system image.
-p
Preserve the system configuration after installing the zone.
-s
Install silently.
-u
Run sys-unconfig(1M) on the zone after installing it.
-v
Verbose output from the install process.
