Sorry, no live migration of individual zones in Solaris 11 either.<BR>
Zen, LDOMs or VirtualBox VMs only.<BR>
<BR>
Of course if Solaris11 with zones is running in a VM or LDOM and it is migrated, all the zones in the OS are migrated as well.<BR>

The Live migration is for Xen based instances running on Oracle OVM<BR>
(based on Xen) on x86, and for LDOMs on SPARC, and not for zones.<BR>
<BR>
Please see : <A HREF="http://www.c0t0d0s0.org/archives/7441-How-to-show-off-live-migration-with-a-SPARC-system.html">http://www.c0t0d0s0.org/archives/7441-How-to-show-off-live-migration-with-a-SPARC-system.html</A><BR>
for a commentary on live migration for LDOM on SPARC.<BR>
