Hi there,
I attempted to clone a zone on Solaris 10 using this command:
# zoneadm -z tst-ha-z1 clone prd-ha-z1

However, the command does not have the clone option:
# zoneadm -z tst-ha-z1 clone prd-ha-z1
usage: zoneadm help
zoneadm [-z <zone>] list
zoneadm -z <zone> <subcommand>

Subcommands:

help
boot [-s]
halt
ready
reboot
list [-cipv]
verify
install
uninstall [-F]

uname -a
SunOS prd-ha-g1 5.10 Generic_118833-36 sun4u sparc SUNW,Netra-T12

I thought that zoneadm was used for cloning zones, and all the
examples I have read refer to this. Does someone know what is wrong,
and is there another way to do this?

Regards, s

Which version of Solaris 10 are you using, I believe the clone option
was added in Update 3 (11/06)

As I wrote in the first post in this thread:
SunOS prd-ha-g1 5.10 Generic_118833-36 sun4u sparc SUNW,Netra-T12

Looks like this clone option, as someone pointed out, is not in the
version we are using. Time for an upgrade plan.
For the time being, the solution is cpio!

that shows the patchlevel. /etc/release contains the installed Version.
Some feature are only available by upgrade not patches.
