Zone issue
I had detached a zone earlier now when i try to install it it gives me following error

zoneadm -z OEM1_wa_lab install
Cannot install detached zone.
Use attach or remove /zones/app/OEM1_wa_lab directory.
could not verify zonepath /zones/app/OEM1_wa_lab because of the above errors.
zoneadm: zone OEM1_wa_lab failed to verify

Though i 'm able to attach the zone back but it does not change its status from configured ?

what could be the reason ?

If I remember correctly, attach it first, then boot it; or did you create a zone, skip the install, then detach it?
