On a vanilla install of omnios, shutdown command fails due to the system being unable to execute showmount.

To resolve this issue you must enable NFS which also requires that you share a directory, below are the steps involved:

echo 'share -F nfs -o ro=test -d "test directory" /export/home' >> /etc/dfs/dfstab


svcadm enable network/nfs/server


to ensure this has worked correctly execute

showmount

this should not return any errors.. simply execute shutdown and you should be back on your way!

sudo shutdown -y -i5 -g0

svcadm restart ssh

zpool create tank mirror c13t0d0 c13t0d1 mirror c13t0d6 c13t0d7
zpool add tank log mirror c4t0d0 c4t1d0

svcadm enable svc:/network/physical:default
ipadm create-addr -T static -a 192.168.0.124/24 igb0/v4static
route -p add default 192.168.0.1
svcadm restart svc:/network/physical:default

add hostname + ip in:
vi /etc/hosts

add nameservers in
vi /etc/resolv.conf
cp /etc/nsswitch.dns /etc/nsswitch.conf
