Logical Domains 1.2 Release Notes

System Controller Software That Interacts With Logical Domains Software

The following system controller (SC) software interacts with the LDoms 1.2 software:

Sun Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) 3.0 firmware is the system management firmware that you can use to monitor, manage, and configure UltraSPARC T2 based server platforms. ILOM is preinstalled on these platforms and can be used on the control domain on LDoms-supported servers with the Logical Domains Manager 1.2 software enabled. Refer to the Sun Integrated Lights Out Manager 3.0 User's Guide for features and tasks that are common to Sun rackmounted servers or blade servers that support ILOM. Other user documents present ILOM features and tasks that are specific to the server platform that you are using. You can find the ILOM platform-specific information within the documentation set that accompanies your system.
Advanced Lights Out Manager (ALOM) Chip Multithreading (CMT) Version 1.3 software can be used on the control domain on UltraSPARC T1 based servers with the Logical Domains Manager 1.0.1 software enabled. Refer to Using LDoms With ALOM CMT in Logical Domains 1.2 Administration Guide. The ALOM system controller enables you to remotely manage and administer your supported CMT servers. ALOM enables you to monitor and control your server either over a network or by using a dedicated serial port for connection to a terminal or terminal server. ALOM provides a command-line interface that you can use to remotely administer geographically distributed or physically inaccessible machines. For more information about using ALOM CMT Version 1.3 software, refer to the Advanced Lights Out Management (ALOM) CMT v1.3 Guide.

The software provides an optimized rapid development and runtime environment on top of multistrand partitioning firmware for Sun CMT platforms. The Logical Domains Manager contains some ldm subcommands (add-vdpcs, rm-vdpcs, add-vdpcc, and rm-vdpcc) for use with this software. Refer to the Netra Data Plane Software Suite 2.0 User’s Guide for more information about this software.
