Gee that was easy!
I LU’d to snv_57 last week, mainly because I wanted to get my hands dirty with the Crossbow zone exclusive-IP feature. Oh, and I also wanted to make use of the input methods and Simplified Chinese locale — most of my team are based in Beijing, so it’s really nice to be able to see characters rather than those damned awful boxes I’ve complained about^W^W mentioned before.Right! So I wandered over to the Crossbow pages, found the Docs page and then Erik Nordmark’s SVOSUG presentation which gave me all the details I needed:
1. zoneadm -z knockout create 2. set ip-type=exclusive 3. add net 4. set physical=nge1 5. end 6. {add my usual inherited pkg dirs} 7. commit 8. zoneadm -z knockout install 9. cat > /zones/knockout/root/etc/sysidcfg network_interface=nge1 { hostname=knockout default_route=192.168.1.1 ip_address=192.168.1.35 netmask=255.255.255.0 protocol_ipv6=no } 10. zoneadm -z knockout boot
I don’t think it could be any simpler. Now to add my usual customisations, copy a hunk of data across from the laptop and a certain package that Dan McDonald is responsible for and I’ll be able to turn off my laptop for a while.
