Install an Agent on an existing unmanaged non-global zone

To bring a zone under agent management by SA, you must first install an SA Server Agent. Before installing an Agent, verify that the following requirements are met:

  • The non-global zone is running.
  • All services on the non-global zone are up and running. If they are not, the zone may not have the necessary sysconfig information that is provided when the non-global zone is booted for the first time. See the Sun Solaris 10/Solaris 11 documentation on zone configuration for more information.

You can install an Agent on an unmanaged Oracle Solaris Zone in two ways:

  • Using SA as described in “Installing and Managing User Agents” in the SAUse section: Server Automation.
  • Using the SA zone management interface.

To install an Agent on an unmanaged non-global zone through the SA zone management interface:

  1. In the navigation pane, select Devices.
  2. Expand Servers, and then select Oracle Solaris Zones.
  3. In the content pane, expand the Global zone that hosts the unmanaged non-global zone you want to modify.
  4. Right-click the non-global zone and select Oracle Solaris Zones > Install Agent.
