x86+vmware+solaris10 可否安装vcs?

check veritas.com, you will find vcs is already supporting solarisx64, so I assume that it can be installed on vmware, though I had never done that.

As for the installation, I guess it must be on global zone, not on local zone. From VCS's perspective, non-global zone is a standard resource, it can not be a system.  We have an implementation of Storage foundation V5 on two systems, each of which contains 3 zones to run application and oracle database respectively.

the things you need to pay attention to are
1. the standard IP agent supports only shared ip-type non-global zone, for exclusive-ip local zones, you will have to create your own customized agent.

2. create zone before the SF5 installation to make the package populated to localzone automatically.

3. inter-zone communication must be established before VCS can take care of resources, which are running in local zones.  for exclusive-ip zones, also permit this communication in between global zone and non-global zone if they are running in different subnets.
