Restoring Domain Configurations
This section describes how to restore a domain configurations from an XML file for guest domains and for the control (primary
) domain.
-
To restore a domain constraints for guest domains, you use the
ldm add-domain -i
command, as described in How to Restore a Domain Configuration From an XML File (ldm add-domain). Although you can save theprimary
domain's constraints to an XML file, you cannot use the file as input to this command. -
To restore a domain configuration for the
primary
domain, you use theldm init-system
command and the resource constraints from the XML file to reconfigure yourprimary
domain. You can also use theldm init-system
command to reconfigure other domains that are described in the XML file, but those domains might be left inactive when the configuration is complete. See How to Restore a Domain Configuration From an XML File (ldm init-system).
