If you want to rename zone:
# zoneadm -z 1 halt
# vi /etc/zones/index (rename "1" to your new zone name, i.e. zone1x86)
# cd /etc/zones/
# mv 1.xml zone1x86.xml
# vi zone1x86.xml (change any reference "1" to new zone name, i.e. zone1x86)
# zoneadm -z zone1x86 boot


Cloning zone1x86 to zone2x86:
# zonecfg -z zone1x86 export > zone2x86.cfg
# vi zone2x86.cfg (change zone1x86 to your new zone name, i.e. zone2x86 and IP address)
