How to create a Solaris local zone with an exclusive NIC?
I'm trying to migrate a Solaris 10 flar archive from a Sun M3000 to a T4-1. When I first created the zone I followed the Oracle instructions here: Transitioning an Oracle Solaris 10 Instance to an Oracle Solaris 11 System - Transitioning From Oracle Solaris 10 to Oracle Solaris 11 That worked OK, in the sense that I was able to boot the zone and access it via ssh and vncviewer. However, I did not realize that without an exclusive NIC, my zone would not be able to do DHCP which means the Sun Ray server would not work, and I have to have that.
Now the T4-1 has four gigabit NICS, labeled on the back net0 - net3. I had one cable connected to net0. So I added a second cable from a free port on my switch to net1 and tried to reconfigure my zone to use it instead of net0. That's when all hell broke loose. I can still talk to the global zone over my LAN but my local zone will no longer even boot.
Here's a few possibly relevant pieces:
Attempting to turn on net1 and boot the zone, I get this:
It doesn't like the global zone having net1? OK, so we try
My zone is already configured? So where is it?
Rather than continuing thrashing about in the dark, I figure it's time to ask for help. I freely admit to having no clue what I'm doing.
