WARNING: /export/home/zones/myhost1-v03 does not exist, so it could not be verified.
When 'zoneadm install' is run, 'install' will try to create
/export/home/zones/myhost1-v03, and 'verify' will be tried again,
but the 'verify' may fail if:
the parent directory of /export/home/zones/myhost1-v03 is group- or other-writable
or
/export/home/zones/myhost1-v03 overlaps with any other installed zones.
