The preparation phase uses the data collected during the collection phase to create a logical domain that is comparable to the source system.
You can use the ldmp2v prepare command in one of the following ways:
Automatic mode. This mode automatically creates virtual disks and restores file system data.
Creates the logical domain and the required virtual disks of the same size as on the source system.
Partitions the disks and restores the file systems.
If the combined size of the /, /usr, and /var file systems is less than 10 Gbytes, the sizes of these file systems are automatically adjusted to allow for the larger disk space requirements of the Oracle Solaris 10 OS. Automatic resize can be disabled by using the –x no-auto-adjust-fs option or by using the –m option to manually resize a file system.
Modifies the OS image of the logical domain to replace all references to physical hardware with versions that are appropriate for a logical domain. You can then upgrade the system to the Oracle Solaris 10 OS by using the normal Oracle Solaris upgrade process. Modifications include updating the /etc/vfstab file to account for new disk names. Any Oracle Solaris Volume Manager or Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM) encapsulated boot disks are automatically unencapsulated during this process. When a disk is unencapsulated, it is converted into plain disk slices. If VxVM is installed on the source system, the P2V process disables VxVM on the created guest domain.
Non-automatic mode. You must create the virtual disks and restore the file system data manually. This mode enables you to change the size and number of disks, the partitioning, and the file system layout. The preparation phase in this mode runs only the logical domain creation and the OS image modification steps on the file system.
Cleanup mode. Removes a logical domain and all of the underlying back-end devices that are created by ldmp2v.
