Covert Global zone to local zone
Dears,

I would like to convert solaris 10 x86 and solaris 10 sparc (Global Zones) physical servers into Local zones.

i found a document which seems to be helpful but i'm stuck @ the 1st step.

to test this i want to do it 1st on x86 system running under vmware ESXi and if it succeeds i will start working on the sparc version. to do so i need to know 1st how to ufsdump root partition in a solaris 10 x86 version, it might be a very silly question.

like below with details:

Global to Local Zone Solaris



Appreciate your help
