Help with ldmconfig

I am trying to setup LDOMs on a newly installed Solaris 10 T4 server. I have installed all the necessary firmware and packages recommended in the Oracle VM for SPARC admin guide. I am tryin

But when I try to run to the "ldmconfig" command it fails with the following error:

Code:
   ERROR: Non-factory default configuration is current.  This utility will
   only operate on unconfigured environments.

   Press enter to continue ...

Here's what I see when I try to list the LDOM configurations :
Code:
root@server1 # ldm list-spconfig
factory-default [next poweron]
root@server1 # ldm ls-config
factory-default [next poweron]

I powered the server down and also ran the following command on the ILOM
Code:
bootmode config=”factory-default”

But it still did not fix anything.

Can anybody please help me ?
Thank you.

Smilie This is a BUG in Oracle VM Server for SPARC 3.0 software

ldmconfig Fails: Fix for Bug ID 7169681 Precludes Unmodified factory-default Configuration
Bug ID 15829698: The ldmconfig command does not work with the Oracle VM Server for SPARC 3.0 software because it only runs when the system runs an unmodified factory-default configuration. A bug introduced in Oracle VM Server for SPARC 3.0 always reports the configuration as being modified.

Workaround: Instead of performing an initial installation of Oracle VM Server for SPARC 3.0, first install Oracle VM Server for SPARC 2.2 and then run ldmconfig. After the domains are created, upgrade the SUNWldm package to Oracle VM Server for SPARC 3.0.
