.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBzonecfg\fR utility creates and modifies the configuration of a zone.
Zone configuration consists of a number of resources and properties.
.sp
.LP
To simplify the user interface, \fBzonecfg\fR uses the concept of a scope. The
default scope is global.
.sp
.LP
The following synopsis of the \fBzonecfg\fR command is for interactive usage:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
zonecfg \fB-z\fR \fIzonename subcommand\fR
.fi
.in -2
.sp

.sp
.LP
Parameters changed through \fBzonecfg\fR do not affect a running zone. The zone
must be rebooted for the changes to take effect.
.sp
.LP
In addition to creating and modifying a zone, the \fBzonecfg\fR utility can
also be used to persistently specify the resource management settings for the
global zone.
.sp
.LP
In the following text, "rctl" is used as an abbreviation for "resource
control". See \fBresource_controls\fR(5).
.sp
.LP
Every zone is configured with an associated brand. The brand determines the
user-level environment used within the zone, as well as various behaviors for
the zone when it is installed, boots, or is shutdown. Once a zone has been
installed the brand cannot be changed. The default brand is determined by the
installed distribution in the global zone. Some brands do not support all of
the \fBzonecfg\fR properties and resources. See the brand-specific man page for
more details on each brand. For an overview of brands, see the \fBbrands\fR(5)
man page.

As for the property values which are paired with these names, they are either
simple, complex, or lists. The type allowed is property-specific. Simple values
are strings, optionally enclosed within quotation marks. Complex values have
the syntax:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
(<\fIname\fR>=<\fIvalue\fR>,<\fIname\fR>=<\fIvalue\fR>,...)
.fi
.in -2
.sp

.sp
.LP
where each <\fIvalue\fR> is simple, and the <\fIname\fR> strings are unique
within a given property. Lists have the syntax:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
[<\fIvalue\fR>,...]
.fi
.in -2
.sp

.sp
.LP
where each <\fIvalue\fR> is either simple or complex. A list of a single value
(either simple or complex) is equivalent to specifying that value without the
list syntax. That is, "foo" is equivalent to "[foo]". A list can be empty
(denoted by "[]").
.sp
.LP
In interpreting property values, \fBzonecfg\fR accepts regular expressions as
specified in \fBfnmatch\fR(5). See \fBEXAMPLES\fR.
.sp
.LP
The property types are described as follows:
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fBglobal: \fBzonename\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
The name of the zone.
.RE

Boolean indicating that a zone should be booted automatically at system boot.
Note that if the zones service is disabled, the zone will not autoboot,
regardless of the setting of this property. You enable the zones service with a
\fBsvcadm\fR command, such as:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
# \fBsvcadm enable svc:/system/zones:default\fR
.fi
.in -2
.sp

Replace \fBenable\fR with \fBdisable\fR to disable the zones service. See
\fBsvcadm\fR(1M).

\fBglobal: \fBbootargs\fR\fR

Arguments (options) to be passed to the zone bootup, unless options are

precedence. The valid arguments are described in \fBzoneadm\fR(1M).
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fBglobal: \fBpool\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Name of the resource pool that this zone must be bound to when booted. This
property is incompatible with the \fBdedicated-cpu\fR resource.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2

\fBglobal: \fBlimitpriv\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
The maximum set of privileges any process in this zone can obtain. The property
should consist of a comma-separated privilege set specification as described in
\fBpriv_str_to_set\fR(3C). Privileges can be excluded from the resulting set by
preceding their names with a dash (-) or an exclamation point (!). The special
privilege string "zone" is not supported in this context. If the special string
"default" occurs as the first token in the property, it expands into a safe set
of privileges that preserve the resource and security isolation described in
\fBzones\fR(5). A missing or empty property is equivalent to this same set of
safe privileges.
.sp
The system administrator must take extreme care when configuring privileges for
a zone. Some privileges cannot be excluded through this mechanism as they are
required in order to boot a zone. In addition, there are certain privileges
which cannot be given to a zone as doing so would allow processes inside a zone
to unduly affect processes in other zones. \fBzoneadm\fR(1M) indicates when an
invalid privilege has been added or removed from a zone's privilege set when an
attempt is made to either "boot" or "ready" the zone.
.sp
See \fBprivileges\fR(5) for a description of privileges. The command "\fBppriv
-l\fR" (see \fBppriv\fR(1)) produces a list of all Solaris privileges. You can
specify privileges as they are displayed by \fBppriv\fR. In
\fBprivileges\fR(5), privileges are listed in the form
PRIV_\fIprivilege_name\fR. For example, the privilege \fIsys_time\fR, as you
would specify it in this property, is listed in \fBprivileges\fR(5) as
\fBPRIV_SYS_TIME\fR.

zone's \fBhostid\fR property is empty by default, meaning that the zone does
not emulate a host identifier. Zone host identifiers must be hexadecimal values

uppercase and lowercase hexadecimal digits are acceptable.

a host name which resolves to an IPv4 address.
.RE
Note that host names that resolve to IPv6 addresses are not supported.
.sp
The physical interface name is the network interface name.
.sp
The default router is specified similarly to the network address except that it
must not be followed by a \fB/\fR (slash) and a network prefix length.
.sp
A zone can be configured to be either exclusive-IP or shared-IP. For a
shared-IP zone, you must set both the physical and address properties; setting
the default router is optional. The interface specified in the physical
property must be plumbed in the global zone prior to booting the non-global
zone. However, if the interface is not used by the global zone, it should be
configured \fBdown\fR in the global zone, and the default router for the
interface should be specified here.

For an exclusive-IP zone, the physical property must be set and the address and
default router properties cannot be set.

processors. The \fBimportance\fR property is optional; if set, it will specify
the \fBpset.importance\fR value for use by \fBpoold\fR(1M). If this resource is
used, there must be enough free processors to allocate to this zone when it
boots or the zone will not boot. The processors assigned to this zone will not

be set when adding this resource. Only a single instance of this resource can
be added to the zone. The \fBphysical\fR property sets the \fBmax-rss\fR for

Sets a limit on the amount of CPU time that can be used by a zone. The unit
used translates to the percentage of a single CPU that can be used by all user
threads in a zone, expressed as a fraction (for example, \fB\&.75\fR) or a
mixed number (whole number and fraction, for example, \fB1.25\fR). An
\fBncpu\fR value of \fB1\fR means 100% of a CPU, a value of \fB1.25\fR means
125%, \fB\&.75\fR mean 75%, and so forth. When projects within a capped zone

To further specify things, the breakdown of the complex property "value" of the
"rctl" resource type, it consists of three name/value pairs, the names being
"priv", "limit" and "action", each of which takes a simple value. The "name"
property of an "attr" resource is syntactically restricted in a fashion similar
but not identical to zone names: it must begin with an alphanumeric, and can
contain alphanumerics plus the hyphen (\fB-\fR), underscore (\fB_\fR), and dot
(\fB\&.\fR) characters. Attribute names beginning with "zone" are reserved for

.SS "Using Kernel Statistics to Monitor CPU Caps"
.sp
.LP
Using the kernel statistics (\fBkstat\fR(3KSTAT)) module \fBcaps\fR, the system
maintains information for all capped projects and zones. You can access this
information by reading kernel statistics (\fBkstat\fR(3KSTAT)), specifying
\fBcaps\fR as the \fBkstat\fR module name. The following command displays
kernel statistics for all active CPU caps:

.SH SUBCOMMANDS
.sp

You can use the \fBadd\fR and \fBselect\fR subcommands to select a specific
resource, at which point the scope changes to that resource. The \fBend\fR and
\fBcancel\fR subcommands are used to complete the resource specification, at
which time the scope is reverted back to global. Certain subcommands, such as
\fBadd\fR, \fBremove\fR and \fBset\fR, have different semantics in each scope.
.sp

\fBzonecfg\fR supports a semicolon-separated list of subcommands. For example:
