Are you sure that the (legacy) zone would run the device drivers?
Aren't all devices/peripherals driven by the global zone with any non-global zones being given access via the global? Like with ethernet interfaces, the legacy zone either has exclusive or shared access to the network adapter but the global runs the driver.
I'm assuming that access to a USB or serial port would depend on whether the non-global zone has the device mapped (in /dev) and then whether the global allows the access, assuming the device is not already in use.
Perhaps other forum members may know the specifics.

Hi !
I've been given a T5240 with 4 disks and 2 HBA cards (but no array connected). I did a factory reset on SP and NVRAM clean on OBP because the server had been used before.
I boot cdrom in single mode and try to create a hw mirror with disks from c1... but only c2 is seen by raidctl.

rem_drv
rem_drv(1M) rem_drv(1M)
NAME
rem_drv - remove a device driver from the system
SYNOPSIS
rem_drv [-b basedir] device_driver
The rem_drv command informs the system that the device driver device_driver is no longer valid. If possible, rem_drv unloads device_driver
from memory. rem_drv also updates the system driver configuration files.
If rem_drv has been executed, the next time the system is rebooted it automatically performs a reconfiguration boot (see kernel(1M)).
The following options are supported:
-b basedir Sets the path to the root directory of the diskless client. Used on the server to execute rem_drv for a client. The client
machine must be rebooted to unload the driver.
Note - The root file system of any non-global zones must not be referenced with the -b option. Doing so might damage the
global zone's file system, might compromise the security of the global zone, and might damage the non-global zone's
file system. See zones(5).
Example 1: Removing the sd Driver
The following example removes the sd driver from use:
example% rem_drv sd
Example 2: Removing a Diskless Client
The following example removes the driver from the sun1 diskless client. The driver is not uninstalled or unloaded until the client machine
is rebooted.
example% rem_drv -b /export/root/sun1 sd
Note the caveat on the use of the -b option in the description of that option, above.
