VDS – Name of the virtual disk service, such as VDS="primary-vds0"
VSW – Name of the virtual switch, such as VSW="primary-vsw0"
VCC – Name of the virtual console concentrator, such as VCC="primary-vcc0"
BACKEND_TYPE – Back-end type of zvol, file, or disk
BACKEND_SPARSE – Whether to create back-end devices as sparse volumes or files BACKEND_SPARSE="yes", or non-sparse volumes or files BACKEND_SPARSE="no"
BACKEND_PREFIX – Location to create virtual disk back-end devices
When BACKEND_TYPE="zvol", specify the BACKEND_PREFIX value as a ZFS dataset name. When BACKEND_TYPE="files", the BACKEND_PREFIX value is interpreted as a path name of a directory that is relative to /.
For example, BACKEND_PREFIX="tank/ldoms" would result in having ZVOLs created in the tank/ldoms/domain-name dataset, and files created in the /tank/ldoms/domain-name subdirectory.
The BACKEND_PREFIX property is not applicable to the disk back end.
BOOT_TIMEOUT – Timeout for Oracle Solaris OS boot in seconds
For more information, see the ldmp2v.conf.sample configuration file that is part of the downloadable bundle.
