Operating Systems Solaris Sharing DVD Drive in LDoms Environment Post 302288652 by StarSol on Tuesday 17th of February 2009 03:38:22 PM

Thanks taran! I do not have the lines that start with "svcadm" but commented the one that starts with "use cdrom drive", and have not seen the error after that. Can you elaborate on why this resolves the issue? I do not seem to find related information on Sun doc.

One more question about the last two commands for LDoms, does that mean that cannot share the same drive with more than one guest domain? If I want to use the same drive for different guest domains, I have to remove it from a domain (using ldm remove-vdisk cdrom cdrom@primary-vds0 xxxx) and add it to another (ldm add-vdisk cdrom cdrom@primary-vds0 yyyy)?

dvdfs(4)						     Kernel Interfaces Manual							  dvdfs(4)

NAME
dvdfs - The Digital Versatile Disk File System [This feature is not supported in Tru64 UNIX Version 5.0] STANDARDS
Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows: ISO/ITEC 13346:1995 Optical Storage Technology Association (OSTA) Universal Disk Format (UDF) Specification, "OSTA UDF Compliant Domain", Version 2.00. ISO 9660:1988 Information Processing-Volume and file structure of CD-ROM for information interchange. Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags. DESCRIPTION
The Digital Versatile Disk File System enables the reading of disks formatted in the Universal Disk Format (UDF). User data sectors in a DVD-ROM can contain any type of data in any format. However, for Tru64 UNIX support through the dvdfs file system, the OSTA UDF file format standard is mandatory. The file system limit for DVDFS is int cfs_cdfs_mount_limit = 512. Additionally, DVD-ROM standards require that the logical sector size and the logical block (the user data block) size be 2048 bytes. DVD support in the UDF specification includes these levels: DVD-ROM (Read-only): Supports reading of UDF-formated files from DVD-ROM disks. DVD-R (Write-once): Supports the reading of UDF-formated files from a DVD-ROM disk and supports writing, one time, UDF-formated files onto a DVD-ROM disk. DVD-RAM (Rewritable): Supports reading and writing of UDF-formated files from and to a DVD-ROM disk. At this time, the Tru64 UNIX dvdfs file system supports only the DVD-ROM (Read-only) format. See mount(8) for information about mounting and unmounting a dvdfs file system, fstab(4) for information about including dvdfs file system in a system's /etc/fstab file, and disklabel(8) for information about labeling DVD-ROM disks.

Commands: disklabel(8), mount(8) Files: cdfs(4) fstab(4) delim off dvdfs(4)
