Create the archive
# archiveadm create -r -z zone2 /archives/zone2.uar
in the target system, the zpool should already exist, then we create the zone and use the archive to install the zone.
# zonecfg -z zone2 create -a /root/zone2.uar
# zoneadm list -cv
ID NAME STATUS PATH BRAND IP
0 global running / solaris share

# zoneadm -z zone2 uninstall
# zoneadm -z zone2 install -a /root/zone2.uar
if “install” fails try this script:
#!/bin/bash
Z=$1
set -x
pkg -R /zones/$Z/root set-publisher -G http://sunutil5:10000/ solaris
