Curious about N1 containers...



Hi All

I have played with the containers on solaris 10 and it's a nice and cool feature. But while containers are good for putting more " virtual servers" on the same machine I am thinking of deploying one service on different machines.
Hence, I am wondering if it's possible to deploy one service on a "virtualized server". Here the problem statement:

1) the environment is made of different hosts, each one running Solaris 10.
2) If one of the hosts goes down, another host take place of the previous one.

In particular I am wondering if one container can be "cloned" or running on different Solaris boxes in a transparent way and controlled by N1.

Suggestions? (links)

Thank you.
