We can't answer the question "is it the best way?" because we would need more detailed information on what you are trying to accomplish and how you want to make design trade-offs.

Currently, the install and patch process is not ZFS aware, which might cause you some difficulty with upgrading or patching. There are alternative methods to solve this problem, but you should be aware of the current limitation. > Recommendations? > Use Solaris 10 9/07.
