Yes the plan is to go to 11.2 - I got the 11.1 update to work on both global and non global 11.0 system. The thing is I did so much stuff I'm still not clear on the procedure - mainly on how to get the repository to be seen by the zone - when I got the update to finally work the zone had a pkg publisher of an http localhost:1008/sorlairs/version (I assume) it was a long string of numbers... well I did get it to work but not sure how I did it... :-) Next step is to update to 11.2 tomorrow. I will post output of what you requested if I have trouble with that. I did have to download a pre-update iso and combine it with 11.0 repo to do the first part of update - then I had to run pkg install pkg/package after that with 11.1 repo configured and that's when it wouldn't connect to the zone... kept failing with https connection errors... I went back and looked at 11.1 docs and I configured a sharenfs for the repo and also configured application/pkg/server. After I did all that I got pkg install package/pkg to run. Here is the application/pkg/server steps I followed:
This service was in maintenance when I checjed it after configuration.. i rebooted system and it came back disabled.. I enabled it and it went online - after that I was able to install package/pkg and update both global and non global zone.
Check your work:
Use pkg.depotd to serve the repository to clients. By default, pkg.depotd listens for connections on port 80. You can change the port by resetting the pkg/port property.
Start the Repository Service
Restart the pkg.depotd repository service.
Here are the NFS share steps I followed:
Make sure sharenfs is on:
Here is the error I was getting before I performed the above...
I can't put URLs in my message the the error is unable to connect to localhost 1008 etc...
Any Idea what I did to get it to work?
---------- Post updated at 12:01 PM ---------- Previous update was at 11:55 AM ----------
PS - after all this and getting the systems to 11.1 I was able to install a new 11.1 zone using the 11-1repo - so it looks like the repo is working OK now - my worries are when I unset that repo and configure the 11.2 repo I will have the same issues. I'd like to know what I'm doing with this stuff but docs online are barbaric... haha
By the way thanks a lot for taking an interest and trying to help me out...
Here is the info you asked for..

Hi Folks,
Just a quick question on this, I've tried to run this a couple of times now - first time it failed I increased the swap. I'm not sure that increasing the physical memory will do any good, but will try later today - has anyone seen this or anything similar?
