(Doc ID 1997071.1)

Goal
To show by example the migration of a Failover Zone to a non-cluster node.
This example shows a 5.10 Global Zone (GZ) and 5.10 Non-Global Zone (NGZ).
There is a brief update at the bottom of this document: 5.11.x/4.x note.
Zones can be used in different ways in an OSC environment.

zone, used in or by cluster or not, the zones will have OSC CORE and very likely AGENT pkg's installed in them.
Background:
I present you with the scenario of having a whole-root failover zone (zone2) which I will migrate to a node
which is not running OSC (Node3).
First, information on the RG and Resources that manage this Failover Zone:
