ZFS CLONE OF NON-GLOBAL ZONE

Hi,

I would like to create a test zone (on the same host) from a snapshot of a current active zone without shutting down the active zone.

I already have the snapshot of the active zone.

The process I plan to follow is:

Add 40G Lun to host the test zone (same as active zone)

Create zpool, dataset and mount - for example

zfs set mountpoint=/zones/prodtestzone PRODTESTZONE/zoneroot

PRODTESTZONE/zoneroot  /zones/prodtestzone

Copy and export the zone Config of active zone

zonecfg -z oraqwicprod export > prodtestzone.cfg

Edit the prodtestzone.cfg

Add new zone path and IP address, remove datasets, change resource values etc etc
