## Resource types
### zone
Manages Solaris zones.
**Autorequires:** If Puppet is managing the directory specified as the root of
the zone's filesystem (with the `path` attribute), the zone resource will
autorequire that directory.
#### Properties
The following properties are available in the `zone` type.
##### `ensure`
The running state of the zone. The valid states directly reflect
the states that `zoneadm` provides. The states are linear,
in that a zone must be `configured`, then `installed`, and
only then can be `running`. Note also that `halt` is currently
used to stop zones.
Default value: running
##### `ip`
The IP address of the zone. IP addresses **must** be specified
with an interface, and may optionally be specified with a default router
(sometimes called a defrouter). The interface, IP address, and default
router should be separated by colons to form a complete IP address string.
For example: `bge0:192.168.178.200` would be a valid IP address string
without a default router, and `bge0:192.168.178.200:192.168.178.1` adds a
default router to it.
For zones with multiple interfaces, the value of this attribute should be
an array of IP address strings (each of which must include an interface
and may include a default router).
##### `iptype`
Valid values: shared, exclusive
The IP stack type of the zone.
Default value: shared
##### `autoboot`
Valid values: `true`, `false`
Whether the zone should automatically boot.
Default value: true
##### `path`
The root of the zone's filesystem. Must be a fully qualified
file name. If you include `%s` in the path, then it will be
replaced with the zone's name. Currently, you cannot use
Puppet to move a zone. Consequently this is a readonly property.
##### `pool`
The resource pool for this zone.
##### `shares`
Number of FSS CPU shares allocated to the zone.
##### `dataset`
The list of datasets delegated to the non-global zone from the
global zone. All datasets must be zfs filesystem names which are
different from the mountpoint.
##### `inherit`
The list of directories that the zone inherits from the global
zone. All directories must be fully qualified.
#### Parameters
The following parameters are available in the `zone` type.
##### `name`
namevar
The name of the zone.
##### `id`
The numerical ID of the zone. This number is autogenerated
and cannot be changed.
##### `clone`
Instead of installing the zone, clone it from another zone.
If the zone root resides on a zfs file system, a snapshot will be
used to create the clone; if it resides on a ufs filesystem, a copy of the
zone will be used. The zone from which you clone must not be running.
##### `sysidcfg`
%{The text to go into the `sysidcfg` file when the zone is first
booted. The best way is to use a template:
# $confdir/modules/site/templates/sysidcfg.erb
system_locale=en_US
timezone=GMT
terminal=xterms
security_policy=NONE
root_password=<%= password %>
timeserver=localhost
name_service=DNS {domain_name=<%= domain %> name_server=<%= nameserver %>}
network_interface=primary {hostname=<%= realhostname %>
ip_address=<%= ip %>
netmask=<%= netmask %>
protocol_ipv6=no
default_route=<%= defaultroute %>}
nfs4_domain=dynamic
And then call that:
zone { 'myzone':
ip => 'bge0:192.168.0.23',
sysidcfg => template('site/sysidcfg.erb'),
path => '/opt/zones/myzone',
realhostname => 'fully.qualified.domain.name',
}
The `sysidcfg` only matters on the first booting of the zone,
so Puppet only checks for it at that time.}
##### `create_args`
Arguments to the `zonecfg` create command. This can be used to create branded zones.
##### `install_args`
Arguments to the `zoneadm` install command. This can be used to create branded zones.
##### `realhostname`
The actual hostname of the zone.
