Solaris 10 u9 zone cloning via ZFS

Hello,
I'm willing to make a few tests with a zone and decided to perform an initial backup in case I make mistakes.
I believe that cloning the zone would be a possible solution for the backup and so I proceeded:
# zoneadm -z s10-z3a-backup clone s10-z3a
WARNING: network address '10.2.112.86' is configured in both zones. (OK: I've just set zonepath and don't care as it's just an off-line backup)
Cloning snapshot rpool/zones/s10-z3a@SUNWzone1
Instead of copying, a ZFS clone has been created for this zone.
grep: can't open /a/etc/dumpadm.conf                               

Howdy, Stranger!
