An Overview and a How-to on Protecting Your Oracle Solaris Zone Cluster [30349]
Labeling Zones for Appropriate Access
Rick Ramsey posts an introduction to zones, clustering, and trusted extensions and a link to a paper by Subama Ganguly on building a secure zone cluster with trusted extensions. As Ramsey writes in his introduction, "Oracle Solaris Trusted Zone clusters became available in Oracle Solaris Cluster 4.1. They are zone clusters with the security capabilities (mandatory access control or MAC) provided by Trusted Extensions. The zones in the cluster are labeled in the same way that other objects are labeled, so that only other objects with the same (or higher) sensitivity label can access them.

How to Configure a Failover Guest Domain in an Oracle Solaris Cluster [29690]
Oracle VM Server Provides Protection to Guest Domains Against Outages, Planned and Unplanned
Venkat Chennuru posts at length in an article that provides a step-by-step example of how to deploy an Oracle VM Server for SPARC guest domain in a highly available failover setup with a two-node Oracle Solaris Cluster 4.1 with a global file system on Oracle Solaris 11.1. The post also explains how to verify that the cluster is behaving correctly by switching over the failover guest domain from the primary node to the secondary node and back. Chennuru writes that the automated failover of a guest domain through restart on an alternate cluster node enables the protection of guest domains from planned and unplanned downtime.
