How To Move a Solaris Container

This How To Guide instructs users, system administrators, and developers who have experience with Solaris 10 on proper use of new features which allow a Solaris 10 Container to be moved from one computer to another. The guide starts with a brief discussion of the need for such functionality and follows with three examples of the use of this functionality.

Note: Technology described in this guide is currently available in Solaris Express, and will be available soon in a Solaris 10 update.

Users are guided step-by-step through the process of moving a Container, with code examples and illustrations. After using this guide, a user should be able to move a Solaris Container by:

  • Creating a Container
  • Detaching the Container
  • Moving the Container to a new computer
  • Attaching the Container to the new computer
