Ideally, the Console Manager should be run on a different system other than
the NetWorker server. That way, when gstd starts, after the NetWorker
daemons start on a server is immaterial. It also takes some of the load off
the NetWorker server. The console GUI will also be more responsive.

I set up the NMC on a Vmware Linux system several months ago after running
it on my Solaris 10 NetWorker server for over a year.

Would it be possible to run the Console Manager in a Solaris 10 zone? I'm pretty sure the master server itself has to be a global-zone instance, but if you only want to use one physical machine, can you spoof the NMC with zones?

Zones work on both x86 and SPARC (it's software virtualization that works at the kernel-level for those unfamiliar with it).
