Solaris 10 - rexplorer and Non-Global zones

Hi all - not really a problem as such, but just hoping someone can shed some light.

We point rexplorer to multiple Global zones and it works as expected. However, each Non-Global zone get around a hundred of root su'ing to root messages, i.e.:

Code:
SU 07/14 03:02 + ??? root-root
SU 07/14 03:02 + ??? root-root
SU 07/14 03:02 + ??? root-root
...

When we created the Non-Global zones we got the message saying the explorer packafe wasn't installed, i.e.:

Code:
*** package <SUNWexplo> was not installed:

But I didn't think it would be a requirement to install it anyway since surely all that is done at the Global level where it is installed.

So the question... is it normal functionality for rexplorer to continuously su to root when running against Non-Global zones? Or is it actually a problem?

The rexplorer output log does report certain things not being installed ( WUNWsccli, A3X00 etc.) but presumably that's not a problem as we don't see all these logins at the Global zone level.

Thanks in advance for any help. Smilie

NAME
zcons - Zone console device driver DESCRIPTION
The zcons character driver exports the console for system zones. The driver is comprised of two "sides:" a master side with which applica- tions in the global zone communicate, and a slave side, which receives I/O from the master side. The slave side is available in the global zones. Applications must not depend on the location of /dev or /devices entries exported by zcons. Inside a zone, the zcons slave side is fronted by /dev/console and other console-related symbolic links, which are used by applications that expect to write to the system console. The zcons driver is Sun Private, and may change in future releases. FILES
/dev/zcons/<zonename>/masterconsole Global zone master side console for zone <zonename>. /dev/zcons/<zonename>/slaveconsole Global zone slave side console for zone <zonename>. /dev/zconsole Non-global zone console (slave side). ATTRIBUTES
