CRS-5008: Invalid attribute value: ce0 for the network interface

Question

Hi all,
we try to install grid infrastructure 11GR2 (11.2.0.1) into Solaris Zone with shared network interface.
We also modified scirpt racgvip, so it will be able to login (via ssh with key authorization) to the global zone and add or remove interface on zone. Script itself works fine.
But it seems that orarootagent some how checks the interface, and returned error.
In the log of the orarootagent I can see error:
2010-10-01 21:38:49.573: [ AGFW][9] CHECK initiated by timer for: ora.net1.network sapdr2db2 1

Does anybody know how the orarootagent checks for the network resource?
It seems that there are some procedures (NetworkAgent::checkLink, NetInterface::sGetIpAddress) inside it. But the problem is that this file is binary.
Or may be there are some ways to track how orarootagent checks?

Is there anything I can do with it? Will appreciate any help!Is ce0 a valid interface on the machine? (has the global zone done "ifconfig ce0 plumb"?)
Is the zone correctly configured (check output of the export sub-command of zonecfg)?
