Thanks James/John! That link specifically mentions "new Solaris 10 release", so I am assuming that means going from like u4 to Sol 10 u5, and that shouldn't cause a problem when doing plain patchadd's (w/o live upgrade). If so, then I am fine with those warnings and can use zfs with zones' path.
So, to do that lofs mount, I could do something like: zfs set snapdir=visible data/zone1 add fs set dir=/data/zone1/.zfs set special=/data/zone1/zfsfiles set type=lofs end Then, from inside the zone, I should be able to do something like: ls /data/zone1/zfsfiles/snapshot/1hrbackup Please correct me if I am wrong. (Just want to make sure I got it right, before I go try this on this semi-production system. Unfortunately, I don't have a test system on hand to play with right now.)
