ERROR: Error: no zonepath dataset.

exit
zoneadm -z test install
ERROR: Error: no zonepath dataset.

pls help me in this.................

The error is simply you didn't create a ZFS dataset for the zone.

try

Code:

zfs create zones/test

assuming you have a zone pool.

Sorry i am new to solaris what is this zone pool means?
how this zone pool will be created?
I just run the steps which are show above post........

It's a ZFS pool./
An OpenSolaris zone requires a dedicated filesystem (ZFS dataset).
Assuming you used the default names, you can create a dedicated dataset that way:

Code:

zfs create /rpool/zones
zfs create /rpool/zones/test

and run again your commands replacing /zones/test with /rpool/zones/test.

ERROR IS COMING

root@opensolaris:~# zfs create /rpool/zones
cannot create '/rpool/zones': leading slash in name

My mistake:

Code:

zfs create rpool/zones
zfs create rpool/zones/test

If it still fails, post "zpool status" and "zfs list" output.

zfs pool has created successful and try to verify the zone before installation it is giving error

root@opensolaris:~# zoneadm -z test verify
