Hi folks. This mail is to post a PSARC case which we recently filed
to enhance zones. This work was done by community member Rich Lowe
and sponsored by me, and has been integrated into Nevada Build 36.
Here is the proposal, which we filed as closed-approved-automatic,
due to its very small size and narrow scope. Thanks, and thanks to
Rich for making zones better!
Note that despite the "patch" binding requested, we don't have plans to
patch this RFE back into the Solaris 10 Update release train at this
time. If that's a burning issue for you, please let us know.

logadm(1m) $zonename keyword
Rich Lowe <richlowe at richlowe dot net>
A. Introduction
This document proposes the addition of a new keyword for the logadm[1]
utility, $zonename. This is a straightforward extension of the logadm
utility and can be regarded as an oversight in the original Zones[2]
design.
This case seeks patch binding.

$zonename Evolving Patch
C. Discussion
logadm includes a -t template option, which specifies the template to
use when renaming log files. The template can be a simple name, such as
/var/adm/oldfile, or it can contain special keywords which are expanded by
logadm and are in the form $word. Allowed sequences currently include:
$file, $dirname, $basename, $n, $N, $secs, $nodename, $platform,
$isa, $release, $machine, $domain
This case seeks to add $zonename to this list. $zonename is defined to
be the same as the output of the zonename(1) utility.
