6 6 brands - alternate operating environments for non-global zones
7 7
8 8 DESCRIPTION
9 9 The branded zone (BrandZ) framework extends the Solaris Zones
10 10 infrastructure described in zones(5) to include the creation of brands,
11 11 which provide non-global zones that contain non-native operating
12 12 environments.
13 13
14 14
15 15 The term "brand" can refer to a wide range of operating environments.
16 16 All brand management is performed as extensions to the current zones
17 17 structure.
18 18
19 19
20 20 Every zone is configured with an associated brand. The brand type is
21 21 used to determine which scripts are executed when a zone is installed
22 22 and booted. In addition, a zone's brand is used to properly identify
23 23 the correct application type at application launch time. The default
24 24 brand is determined by the installed distribution in the global zone.
25 25
26 26
27 27 A branded zone will support exactly one brand of non-native binary,
28 28 which means that a branded zone provides a single operating
29 29 environment. Once a zone has been assigned a brand, that brand cannot
30 30 be changed or removed.
31 31
32 32
33 33 BrandZ extends the zones tools in the following ways:
34 34
35 35 o A brand is an attribute of a zone, set at zone create time.
36 36
37 37 o The zonecfg tool (see zonecfg(1M)) is used to set a zone's
38 38 brand type and configure the zone.
39 39
40 40 o The zoneadm tool (see zoneadm(1M)) is used to report a
41 41 zone's brand type and administer the zone.
42 42
43 43 Device Support
44 44 The devices supported by each zone are documented in the man pages and
45 45 other documentation for that brand. The zones infrastructure detects
46 46 any attempt to add an unsupported device and issues a warning to the
47 47 administrator. If the administrator chooses to add an unsupported
48 48 device despite that warning, that device might or might not work as
49 49 expected. The configuration will be untested and unsupported.
