Local zone as NFS server?

I’m busy to deploy a new virtualized infrastructure based on Solaris zones. A pool of physical servers will run multiple zones dedicated per applications. Each one being load-balanced or for failover.

It seams that running a NFS server on a non-global zone is not supported!? :-[
From /lib/svc/method/nfs-server:

# The NFS server is not supported in a local zone
if smf_is_nonglobalzone; then
/usr/sbin/svcadm disable -t svc:/network/nfs/server
echo "The NFS server is not supported in a local zone"
sleep 5 &
exit $SMF_EXIT_OK
fi

But Google found the following post. I’m lost!
