5 <title>Configuring a Zone for Running <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/></title>

8 <p>
9 Assuming that <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> has already been installed into
10 your zone, you need to give the zone access to <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/>'s
11 device node. This is done by performing the following steps.
12 Start a root terminal and run the following command:
13 </p>
14 <pre xml:space="preserve">zonecfg -z <varname>vboxzone</varname>
15 </pre>
16 <p>
17 Replace <varname>vboxzone</varname> with the name of the
18 zone where you intend to run <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/>.
19 </p>
20 <p>
21 Use <userinput>zonecfg</userinput> to add the
22 <codeph>device</codeph> resource and <codeph>match</codeph>
23 properties to the zone, as follows:
24 </p>
25 <pre xml:space="preserve">zonecfg:vboxzone&gt;add device
26zonecfg:vboxzone:device&gt;set match=/dev/vboxdrv
27zonecfg:vboxzone:device&gt;end
28zonecfg:vboxzone&gt;add device
29zonecfg:vboxzone:device&gt;set match=/dev/vboxdrvu
30zonecfg:vboxzone:device&gt;end
31zonecfg:vboxzone&gt;exit</pre>
32 <p>
33 On Oracle Solaris 11 or later, you may also add a device for
34 <filepath>/dev/vboxusbmon</filepath>, similar to that shown
35 above.
36 </p>
37 <p>
38 If you are not using sparse root zones, you will need to
39 loopback mount <filepath>/opt/VirtualBox</filepath> from the
40 global zone into the non-global zone at the same path. This is
41 specified below using the <codeph>dir</codeph> attribute and
42 the <codeph>special</codeph> attribute. For example:
43 </p>
44 <pre xml:space="preserve">zonecfg:vboxzone&gt;add fs
45zonecfg:vboxzone:device&gt;set dir=/opt/VirtualBox
46zonecfg:vboxzone:device&gt;set special=/opt/VirtualBox
47zonecfg:vboxzone:device&gt;set type=lofs
48zonecfg:vboxzone:device&gt;end
49zonecfg:vboxzone&gt;exit</pre>
50 <p>
51 Reboot the zone using <userinput>zoneadm</userinput> and you should
52 be able to run <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> from within the configured zone.
