Ok. It is a bit scary though that I have to execute my du as root (sudo root, but root nonetheless)

A:
According to Solaris Operating System Managing ZFS in Solaris 10 Containers the following command would give you the information you require.
zfs list

Turns out I misread the question. My solution will absolutly not help you.

Since I tried both John's solution and Pierre-Luc solution, what works for me is:
- list all the zone (from the global zone)
:
tcsh>zoneadm list -civ
ID NAME STATUS PATH BRAND IP
0 global running / native shared
1 myZone1 running /export/zones/myZone1 native shared
2 myZone2 running /export/zones/myZone2 native shared
du -skas root
(since local zones are not readable from global zone, I had todu -skthem as root)
:
tcsh>s du -sk /export/zones/myZone1
9930978 /export/zones/myZone1

A:
If you install the zone on a zfs volume then you can use the zfs tools ("zfs list") to quickly see how much space has been used.
Otherwise you'll have to use "du" as you already discovered (which will be much slower).
