Why does Zone Creation NOT use /zones as base by default, rather then /var/mnt/oc-zpools/ea5967a7...

So when Creating new Oracle Solaris zones, it appears the "default" location to deploy these from is /var/mnt/oc-zpools/SOME_VERY_LONG_CRYPTIC_STRING/root, etc.

Why does this Not use /zones/ZONE_NAME as the base path for zones?

For One, using "df" is not pretty at all!

#  df -h

rpool/VARSHARE/zones   125G    31K       103G     1%    /system/zones

rpool/VARSHARE/pkg     125G    32K       103G     1%    /var/share/pkg

rpool/VARSHARE/pkg/repositories

Howdy, Stranger!
