You are being sloppy > with your terminology. OpenBSD of course cannot run in a Solaris zone. OpenBSD can run in a hardware zone, and when something it does (which we don't know yet) locks up that hardware zone, the only way to get the hardware zone back is to POWER THE MACHINE OFF. That is a lack of hardware zoning, or isolation. That is not what people paid a lot of money for. Those customers really expected that the machine would not need a powerdown to get around a bug in hardware zones. > > If you don't understand that, you must be really really stupid. > > > > Here we go again - any time anyone disagrees with you they are too > stupid to see.

Noone is talking about Solaris zones except you. This problem takes a hardware zone down, and the only way to get the zone back is to power the machine off. > If you don't then you are > just spreading FUD. Why don't we wait for Sun to release the fix, and then you can eat your words.
