This procedure describes how to clone a Solaris Zone.
That is make a new working zone from an existing zone.
List the zones :
On the global zone, use the zoneadm list -vc :
Use the export option with zonecfg -z to create a configuration file.
# zonecfg -z <zone name> export <file name>
Edit the configuration file created in the previous step and change the parameters
# vi <new zone name>.cfg
Use zoneadm -z with the halt
# zoneadm -z <zonename> halt
Now clone your halted zone with :
# zoneadm -z <new zone> clone <existing zone>
# zoneadm -z <new zone> boot
Use zlogin -c to the new zone and configure the language, timezone and netw ork parameters.
# zlogin -C <new zone>
