Canīt install Solaris in guest domain

Hi,
i installed Solaris 11 in T2000.
I have 2 guest domains, and i want to install Solaris 10 on a guest domain and Solaris 9 on another.
I added a vdsdev with the iso file to primary, and then i added a vdisk to guest domain but it doesnt recognize as boot disk.
I even tried with lofiadm -a /path/to/iso and allocate the output /dev/lofi/1 to guest domain. But it doesnīt work.
Here is my list-bindings output:

Not what you want to hear unfortunately but Solaris 11 does NOT support legacy zones. You need to use Solaris 10 as your Global zone if you want to guest Solaris 9 & 10.

See this thread:
Solaris virtual machine SPARC?

you can't do a Solaris 10 zone in a Solaris 11 Global zone but you can do a Solaris 10 LDOM in a Solaris 11 Primary with a Solaris 10 zone.

Yes, i finally installed Solaris 10 on guests domains. Now im trying to make a Solaris 9 zone on one of them.
I have a problem, i donīt have network comunication between domains, so i just can connect by console. I need to trasnfer files from global domain to guests domains so... anybody has an idea how to make possible ftp transfers betweetn primary to guests?

thanks!

FTP between Global and zones

you could, but the better questions is why would you?

what are you trying to accomplish?

can you send the output of

Code:
zoneadm list -cv

yes, but I'd like to see the output of
Code:
zoneadm list -cv

to confirm something before I answer.

---------- Post updated at 08:11 PM ---------- Previous update was at 04:14 PM ----------

so here's an example from my server

Code:
oot@11:~# zoneadm list -cv
  ID NAME             STATUS      PATH                         BRAND      IP    
   0 global           running     /                            solaris    shared
   - tstzone1         installed   /zones/tstzone1              solaris    excl  
root@11:~# cd /zones/tstzone1
root@11:/zones/tstzone1# ls
root
root@11:/zones/tstzone1# cd root
root@11:/zones/tstzone1/root# ls
bin     etc     home    mnt     proc    sbin    tmp     var
dev     export  lib     opt     root    system  usr

the point being that the zone file system is literally part of the global file system. Meaning you can just copy the files into the zones' filesystem. Does this answer your question?
