Resilient I/O Domain Requirements
Note:
The Oracle Solaris 10 OS does not provide I/O domain resiliency.A resilient I/O domain must meet the following requirements:
-
Runs at least the Oracle Solaris 11.2 SRU 8 OS and its
primary
domain runs at least the Oracle VM Server for SPARC 3.2 software. -
Uses multipathing to create failover configurations for virtual functions and virtual devices. This configuration requires the virtual functions and the virtual devices to be of the same class: network or storage.
-
Has the master property value set to the name of a root domain whose failure-policy property is set to ignore. Any other failure policy setting, such as
stop
,reset
, orpanic
, supersedes I/O resiliency and the I/O domain is interrupted. -
Uses only SR-IOV virtual functions, virtual network devices, and virtual storage devices that support I/O domain resiliency. See https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=REFERENCE&id=1325454.1.
