Symptoms

Migrating an existing Solaris 10 (native) non-global zone running on a Solaris 10 global zone to a Solaris10 branded zone on a Solaris 11 global zone fails when using one of following methods:

1) Attaching a Solaris 10 non-global zone to a Solaris 11 server. 
For example:

    - Move the LUN with the zone path from Solaris 10 global zone to the Solaris 11 global zone.
    - Create the configuration for the Solaris10 branded zone on the Solaris 11 global zone via zonecfg.
    - Attach the Solaris 10 non-global zone to the Solaris 11 server.  This fails with the error seen below:

 

 

2) Installing a 'sparse' native zone from Solaris 10 to a branded Solaris 10 zone on Solaris 11 using "zoneadm -z zonename install" fails with error:

"The image was created with an incompatible libc.so.1 hwcap lofs mount."
