Before you can run the Oracle VM Server for SPARC P2V tool, ensure that the following conditions are met:
The following Flash Archive patches are installed on the source system:
For the Solaris 8 OS: At least patch ID 109318-34
For the Solaris 9 OS: At least patch ID 113434-06
The control domain of the target system runs at least the Oracle Solaris 11 OS
Guest domains run at least the Oracle Solaris 10 5/08 OS
The source system runs at least the Solaris 8 OS
In addition to these prerequisites, configure an NFS file system to be shared by both the source and target systems. This file system should be writable by root. However, if a shared file system is not available, use a local file system that is large enough to hold a file system dump of the source system on both the source and target systems.
