Solaris Containers - Documentation

Documentation

The Solaris operating system provides man pages for Solaris Containers by default; more detailed documentation can be found at various on-line technical resources.

The first published document and hands-on reference for Solaris Zones was written in February 2004 by Dennis Clarke at Blastwave.org, providing the essentials to getting started. This document was greatly expanded upon by Brendan Gregg in July 2005. The Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 Containers were documented in detail by Dennis Clarke at Blastwave(tm) again in April 2008 and this has become a simple How To style guide that can get people started with Solaris Containers in a production setting. The Blastwave Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 Containers document was very early in the release cycle of the Solaris Containers technology and the actions and implementation at Blastwave resulted in a followup by Sun Microsystems marketing. More extensive documentation may be found at the Sun Microsystems documentation site, the Sun BluePrints Archive, and the Sun Solaris Containers Learning Center.
