LDOM and Zones on same T5120

I have a client that wants to run Zones and LDOM's on the same T5120 Test and Dev box.
We don't want to run a zones in an LDOM, but have 3 zones running Branded Solaris 8, then install LDOM software for testing.
Is this possible?
Thanks
Rod.

Rod,
As I understand it there are no technical reasons not to use both [non global] zones and LDoms on the same server. In some cases I think using zones in an LDom is encouraged.
Keep in mind that:
1. when you change the server to LDom ALL Solaris instances will run in LDom - you can not run LDom and non LDom at the same time.
2. you will need a "Primary control I/O" LDom in addition to the LDom(s) that you are testing - the Primary-control-I/O LDom could be your current Test-Dev Solaris instance (I'm not sure this would be recommended - but you did say this is a Test-Dev box.).
3. each LDom needs real hardware including memory, CPU(s), disk space, network connection - you could share the disk and network but the CPUs and memory are not.
A good place to get additional info on LDoms is the [LDoms Community Cookbook|http://wikis.sun.com/display/SolarisLogicalDomains/LDoms+Community+Cookbook]
hope this helps.

  • LDOMs, Solaris zones and Live Migration

    Hi all,
    If you are planning to use Solaris zones inside a LDOM and using an external zpool as Solaris zone disk, wouldn't this break one of the requirements for being able to do a Live Migration ? If so, do you have any ideas on how to use Solaris zones inside an LDOM and at the same time be able to do a Live Migration or is it impossible ? I know this may sound as a bad idea but I would very much like to know if it is doable.

    Thanks,
    By external pool I am thinking of the way you probably are doing it, separate LUNs mirrored in a zpool for the zones coming from two separate IO/Service domains. So even if this zpool exist inside the LDOM as zone storage this will not prevent LM ? That's good news. The requirement "no zpool if Live Migration" must then only be valid for the LDOM storage itself and not for storage attached to the running LDOM. I am also worried about a possible performance penalty introducing an extra layer of virtualisation. Have you done any tests regarding this ?

  • LDOM and portmapper problems

    I have recently set the latest version of LDOMS up on a T2000 Server, all was going quite well, however I seem to be having an issue doing jumpstart install of my first guest domain.
    When booting over the network using boot net:dhcp - install I am getting the initial Solaris boot messages and then a portmapper error:
    SunOS Release 5.10 Version Generic_120011-14 64-bit
    Copyright 1983-2007 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights reserved.
    Use is subject to license terms.
    WARNING: pmap_kgetport: Portmapper not responding; still trying
    This portmapper error will continue down the screen until i power off the guest.
    However once in approx every 4-5 boots this problem doesn't happen and the machine boots as normal. The install then fails because it can't find a disk but thats another problem, I'm more concerned initially about solving the network boot problem.
    Any clues on what is causing this or how to troubleshoot gratefully received.
    BTW Physical clients build from the jumpstart without this problem

  • Moving LDOM hosting zones

    We have 3 t2 servers which we have replaced with t4's. I need to transfer ldoms from the t2's to the t4's.
    The t2's are running sol10u8 with ldoms 1.1 with zones installed within the ldoms.
    On the t4's i have installed sol10u10 with ldoms 2.2
    Each ldom on the t2 is configured with zfs and have 2 or 3 zones installed.
    On the t2 physical host I created a zfs snapshot of the ldom then used zfs send/rec to transfer the ldom to the t4.
    When I start up the ldom it has lost all it guest zfs datasets so the global zone is available but no other zones.
    How can I transfer the ldom and retain its hosted zones / zfs setting.
    Or do I have to transfer the ldom via zfs snapshot then transfer the ldom hosted zfs datasets and zones as a separate operation.
    Thanks Mick

    Very difficult to help without any details.
    What's the state of the zpools and zfs filesystem and zones?
    zoneadm list -cv
    zonecfg -z zone info
    zpool status
    zfs list

  • How to send IP Addr in an alert and receive the same?

    1. I have an 'alert handler' process that's sending an alert using 'Create Alert' activity.
    2. I have a listening/receiving process that get's triggered by this alert from the 'alert handler' process.
    3. The listening/receving process telnet's to a router. I want the listening/receiving process to extract the IP Address of the router from the alert that triggered this listening proecess.
    4. I tried sending the IP address of the router as 'Parameter 1' using the 'Create Alert' activity in the 'alert handler' process.
    5. In the receiving process, in order to telnet to the router, I chose 'Execute on this target reference' option for the 'Open Terminal' acitivity, but was unable to access 'Paramter 1' of the alert. It shows greyed out.
    Question:
    What is the best way to send the IP address of the router in the alert and receive the same in the listening process such that I can telnet to that router in the listening process?
    Please note: tried creating a 'terminal target'...there is no way for me to supply IP address info from outside into terminal target...looks like terminal target only takes a hard coded IP address or host name.
    Will appreciate your prompt response please.
    thanks,
    Jamal

    We discussed this, but just to post here. To view alert or other tasks parameters via the reference variable fields you have to select the show advanced checkbox.

  • HT201272 I have always had and used the same Apple ID, so where are the rest of the songs I bought from itunes? I've bought at least 400 songs and I only am being able to download 178. Where are the rest of my purchases?!

    I have always had and used the same Apple ID. I have changed credit card information on my Apple ID account several times though. Does that make a difference when downloading past purchases? I'm very angry at Apple and Itunes because I have been using itunes since 05/2005 and I do not have even close to the amount of songs and albums that I have purchased from itunes. If the credit card info does make a difference even though the account is the same one then itunes needs to make sure to notify users of this because I am not the only one who is wondering this same thing. I have numerous friends who i've talked to about this and they say the same thing, that they too have songs purchased in the past that have disappeared when trying to download past purchased items. It should not make a difference. $12 is $12. Especially since I have ALWAYS used the same account. If itunes does not change their ways, I will not be purchasing songs or anything else for that matter from them ever again. I will go back to buying CDs where I KNOW that it will always be with me and I don't have to deal with this. I will also make sure to find a better more reliable source to download music from and will make sure everyone I know and come in contact with knows what it is and how much better it is than itunes. There should be no experation date on the music I PURCHASE, nor should there be any other little loop holes that allow itunes to rob us of rightfully purchased products. What's the deal itunes??

    If I get a message or buy an app or take a photo on the iPhone 5, how do I get those things onto the iPhone 6?
    If you buy an App, you have 2 ways to get it to the iPhone6: If Automatic Downloads is enabled in Settings->iTunes & App Store, it will automatically download to the iPhone 6 when you buy it on the 5 and vice versa if you buy it on the 6, it will download to the 5.
    Alternatively, you can simply go to the App Store App->Updates->Purchased and look for the App there and download it. Purchased Apps will not require payment again. i.e They'll be free to download to the iPhone 6 once purchased.
    SMS Messages will sync over using Continuity as long as they are on the same Wifi network. Otherwise, restoring the iPhone 5 backup to the iPhone 6 will transfer all messages received up until the backup was made onto the iPhone 6.
    Images, can be transferred either through Photo Stream
    My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
    Or any Cloud service you want such as Dropbox, or One Drive.
    mannyace wrote:
    Also, something i forgot to ask initially: Should I update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8 first or does that not matter?
    If you want the Continuity features as explained above you need to update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8. Otherwise its not all that important.

    I tried to install yosemite yesterday and my computer goes through the whole installation process and then to a blank white screen.  I've rebooted, I've reinstalled several times and get the same result.  Two days wasted and I can't use my computer!!

    I don't know if you've already resolved your problem, but I had the same thing, it took me 6 hours to fix it. I had the exact same as you, installed the update and then it went to a white screen. After trying start up holding down cmmd r or holding down the alt key to try to install it again, nothing worked, same result every time. Then an angel came to me here somewhere but I can't find it now to thank him. Start in safe mode, press shift once you hear the start up chime and hold it down until you hear it again. Installation completion box came up and it was working. turn off computer and start up again normally and all is well. Except my final cut pro x doesn't work with it, have to update that now too. same as when I updated to mavericks.

    We have developed a desktop application using Flash software and published the same for MAC environment. When we double click on the index.app file, the application is working perfectly in Mac 10.6.7 at our office. But if the same index.app file is double clicked in Mac 10.6.7 at out clients location, its not opening. For your information the client is able to open this same application by double clicking on index.swf file. The main problem is that client is not able to open the application using index.app file at their office whereas we are able to do so at our office. Can anyone give some suggestions to sort this problem?

    The most common reason is different versions of Flash, or different versions of web browsers used.  Some users may elect to not have Flash installed at all because of the processor overhead of Flash.  If you are going to make an application for a client, check what operating system and browser versions they are using first.  Then determine if a stand alone application is required, or if they have the necessary plugins to run specific browser enhanced code.
