Thank you Jlliagre,

That's a really good suggestion. Since you used the words "doomed link" I will forget that whole idea.

You say:

what you might do is manually lofs mount your global zone directory to some directory under the zonepath.
something like
What do you mean by "manually mount"? Do you think that I can put this into the global vfstab to automate it? Do you think that this won't interfere with local zone booting/shutdown?

I realise that I need to test this but any information from someone who has more experience than me on this is extremely welcome. Although I've done loads of work on Solaris for years I have never had to tackle this particular issue.

Again, thank you immensely for your help on this.

Running the mount command I posted.

Probably not.

The idea is to mount the directory after the zone is booted and to unmount it before it is shutdown/rebooted in order to avoid any interference with the non global zone start and stop processes.

Yes, right!!! That's what you mean by manually.

I'll try that. Thanks.

I'll update (in a while when I get back on site in a few days).
