High level Steps for patching VCS controlled zones

To make the zone under local control. 

performs the following:

1.       Determine which zones are in scope (the ONLINE ones)
2.       Add temporary vfstab lines for all the zones’ filesystems
3.       Set the relevant diskgroups to “autoimport”
4.       Freeze the groups (to stop another node taking them)
5.       Disabled VCS startup
6.       Stop VCS locally
7.       Warn about any extraneous lines in /etc/zones/index (these will need commenting/removing).

To make the zone under VCS control. 

performs the following:

1.       Remove the lines added to vfstab
2.       Re-enable VCS startup
3.       Start VCS, and wait for the node to re-join the cluster
4.       Unfreeze the groups
5.       Online the groups (on this node)
