This isolation prevents processes that are running in one zone from monitoring or affecting processes running in other zones. &zones.intro;&z.config.ov;&z.conf.start;&z.inst.ov;&z.inst.task;&z.login.ov;&z.login.task;&z.migrate;&z.pkginst.ov;&z.pkginst.task;&z.admin.ov;&z.admin.task;&z.troubleshooting; BrandZ provides the framework to create non-global branded zones that contain non-native operating environments. Branded zones are used on the Solaris Operating System to run applications. The first brand available is the lx brand, Solaris Containers for Linux Applications. The lx brand provides a Linux environment for your applications and runs on x86 and x64 machines. &lz.intro;&lx.config;&lx.config.task;&lx.inst.ov;&lx.inst.task;&lx.login.task;&lx.migrate;&lx.administer; SunxVM within the Solaris Operating System, the Sun xVM hypervisor, and virtual machine instances called domains. &x.about;&xen.intro;&xvnc;&virt-inst;&xen.trouble; &glossary;
