h/w faults.. no way, you only have to give in. Zones are virtually on top of the global zone, without your global zone, you CAN'T have your local zones running. Downtime..

That's not a good practice. The global zone shouldn't host that kind of stuff. Just create a second zone for them, unless they really require global zone privileges.

Not that much different from non zoned OS disaster recovery. Use a clustering software or manual failover to handle service disruptions. Have your data on redundant shared storage devices. Do backups often. Spread the backups on different geographical locations, and so on. Tests your procedures.
