Subject: [CUUG events] May GM: BrandZ, Running Linux in Solaris 10 Zones


May General Meeting
BrandZ - Running Linux in Solaris 10 Zones
Speaker: Willem van Schaik, Sun Microsystems

With the release of Solaris 10, two new important features were added to the

operating system: zones and dtrace. With zones, multiple instances of the OS

can be configured, enabling a virtualized deployment environment.

In this presentation by Sun's Willem van Schaik, we take a look into the
next 
phase, called BrandZ, which allows the installation of non-Solaris operating

systems like Linux and BSD into a zone. Solaris Containers for Linux 
Applications (SCLA), i.e. Linux running in a Solaris BrandZ Zone, opens up
new 
possibilities, like analyzing and debugging Linux programs with DTrace.
BrandZ 
is still under development, but try-out versions are available as part of 
OpenSolaris and Solaris Express.

Willem van Schaik is a Senior Solutions Architect with CUUG's Diamond-level 
sponsor Sun Microsystems.
