The error indicates that DB2 is unable to determine the number 
of disks installed in the server, because Solaris hides the 
hardware details within a local zone.  This error message is 
expected in such case, and does not affect any functionalities 
of DB2.  Since a concern was raised that this message may 
wrongfully alarm users, the message level will be lowered to 
WARNING.  Currently, it's shown as ERROR, as seen in the message 
above.
