Verify the device ID from the output in Step 1.

/SYS/MB/PCIE5/IOVGEN.PF0                   PF     pci_1    primary  
[pci@340/pci@1/pci@0/pci@4/pciex108e,2088@0]

where 2088 is the device ID.

Initiate a delayed reconfiguration operation on the primary domain.
All configuration changes for other domains are disabled until the primary domain reboots, at which time the new configuration for the primary domain will also take effect.
```
#ldm start-reconf primary
```

Create VFs on the PFs.

 #ldm create-vf /SYS/MB/PCIE4/IOVGEN.PF0

Reboot the server.
Add the VFs to the LDOM.
```
#ldm add-io /SYS/MB/PCIE4/IOVGEN.PF0.VF0 ldom
  
```
Note - While adding VF to LDOM, LDOM should be in bound/inactive state.

For additional information on VFs, refer to the Oracle VMServer for SPARC 3.3 Administration Guide at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/documentation/vm-sparc-194287.html.
