Vds_add_vd() error and frozen guest domain

Question

Hello all,
trying to setup a guest domain but getting a frozen domain at the end of the process. Seems to be a combination of some other issues on the forum. Commands run...

Tried stopping/unbinding the domain and then rebooting the primary domain, still doesn't work. Removed the guest domain, rebooted, recreated, still doesn't work. Any ideas on what else I can try? Thanks

Hi merwick,
thanks for the reply. Running sol10 11/06 (u3) with patch 124921. The disk wasn't in use anywhere else but vxvm is installed on the box which got me thinking. Seems I was getting hit by the veritas DMP issue (bug 6522993) even though the disk in question wasn't being used by vxvm directly. A "vxdisk rm" solved the issues. So first guest domain up and running :) Happy days. Uninstalled vxvm from the system as well and am off to try out zfs as boot disks (as described in the Ldom admin guide). Thanks again.
