Shut Down the LDoms

The base server configurations vary based on the configuration chosen during installation.

• If the compute server is running with one LDom, shut down the machine just as you would any other server by cleanly shutting down the OS.

• If the compute server is running two LDoms, shut down the guest domain first and then the primary (control) domain.

• If the compute server is running with three or more domains, identify the domains that are running off virtualized hardware and shut them down first before moving on to shutting down the guest domain and finally the primary (control) domain.

1. Shut down, stop, and unbind each of the non-I/O domains.

   # ldm stop domainname
   LDom domainname stopped
   # ldm unbind-domain domainname
   

2. Shut down, stop, and unbind any active I/O domains.

   # ldm stop activedomainname
   LDom activedomainname stopped
   # ldm unbind-domain activedomainname
   

3. Halt the primary domain.

   # shutdown -i5 -g0 -y

   Because no other domains are bound, the firmware automatically powers off the system.
