Solaris 11.3 Sparc - LDOMs: Unable to boot from media

SamadulhaqFeb 28 2016 — edited Feb 29 2016

Hi Everyone.

Case 1:

Recently we've tried creating a new domain on solaris 11.3 on sparc T5-2. After creating vswitch/vdisks/virtual rom we are facing the error "The file just loaded does not appear to be executable.".

{0} ok devalias

vdisk_iso /virtual-devices@100/channel-devices@200/disk@2

vdisk_cd_media /virtual-devices@100/channel-devices@200/disk@1

net1 /virtual-devices@100/channel-devices@200/network@0

net /virtual-devices@100/channel-devices@200/network@0

disk /virtual-devices@100/channel-devices@200/disk@0

Useful Information:

==============

root@solaris:~# uname -a

SunOS solaris.arcana.com 5.11 11.3 sun4v sparc sun4v


root@solaris:~# ldm -V

Logical Domains Manager (v 3.3.0.0.17)

        Hypervisor control protocol v 1.12

        Using Hypervisor MD v 1.4

root@solaris:~# ldm list

NAME             STATE      FLAGS   CONS    VCPU  MEMORY   UTIL  NORM  UPTIME

primary          active     -n-cv-  UART    4     16128M   2.9%  2.9%  7h 6m

newdom1          active     -t----  5000    4     8G        25%   25%  6h 11m

Case 2:

Similarly if we try to use OVM manager 3.3 and discover Sparc 11.3 (T5-2), we are unable to ssh(using net0) as soon as we create a VLAN on any interface.

Useful Information:

==============

1. root@solaris:~# uname -a

SunOS solaris.arcana.com 5.11 11.3 sun4v sparc sun4v


2. Oracle VM Manager Version: 3.3

3. Oracle VM Agent version 3.3


Any help in this regard is appreciable, looking forward for your helpful replies.
