Summary:                    global zone orcallator won't start if child zone
orcallator already running
Description: 
The global zone sees processes in all child zones as well as itself.
The start_orcallator script is using /usr/ucb/ps but that's not
appropriate for Solaris 10 it doesn't know about zones. Use /usr/bin/ps
with the -z flag and the value from zonename ("/usr/bin/ps -eafz
`zonename`) and you will only see current zone processes.

Here is another approach which looks for the orcallator.pid file:
