Hi pupp
Reading through the docs yesterday I saw that the dvd is assigned to domain 1. Currently, my server will have 4 cpus ( 2 per a board ) 32 Gb of Ram, 2 x io trays, 2 NICs, 2 HBAs.
I was going to just put everything into one domain, then zone it out via solaris 10.
But, reading the docs thought I would have a little play and see if
I can configure the components into 2 domains. A bit of training, so to speak :-}
Seems like I have enough components to do this.
From your reply, you say I should give sxcf an ip, so I would imagine you treat the xscf like a alom/lom /sc ? Correct ?? I noticed each IO tray has its own set of NIC ports, so I imagine I use one of these as its routable IP address ?? Correct ?? If I have 2 io trays, I surely dont have two xscf ?
What are the commands to configure the components ?? is it a case of logging in, typing help ? to see whats avialable ?
Reading the docs, unlike a F15K where domains are made up of boards / units, it seems that within the M5000 you can now make domains out of modules. So, in the F15K one system board with two cpu's is allocated to one domain, on the m5000 one cpu on the psb can be one domain, the other one into another domain. As long as you havew the right number of cpu's / memory, then you can make a domain ? correct ?
As for build each domain. Well, I will have 4 internal drives. Whats stopping me in building a domain, via the dvd, then synicing up the mirror. Using that mirror to then build the other domain, unsysconfig it when it comes up, and giving it a new ip etc etc ?

stop-domain [--domaindir install_dir/domains][--terse=false] [--echo=false] [domain_name]
stop-domain stops the specified domain. If there is only one domain in the default domain directory (install_dir/domains), then no operand
is required to stop the domain. However, if there is more than one domain, the domain operand must be specified. This command is supported
in local mode only.
OPTIONS
--domaindir directory where the domain is to be stopped. If specified, path must be accessible in the filesystem. If not speci-
fied, the domainis stopped in the default install_dir/domains directory.
--terse indicates that any output data must be very concise, typically avoiding human-friendly sentences and favoring well-
formatted data for consumption by a script. Default is false.
--echo setting to true will echo the command line statement on the standard output. Default is false.
OPERANDS
domain_name name of the domain. Must be a unique name.
Example 1: Using stop-domain
asadmin> stop-domain sampleDomain
Stoping Domain sampleDomain, please wait

Command stop-domain executed successfully
Where: the sampleDomain domain in the default domains directory is stopped.
EXIT STATUS
