Hi, I am on the above mentioned hardware running OpenBSD 70 -stable. Someone mentioned in another thread that LDOM problems on a T1000 were solved by upgrading the firmware to 6.7.13. My firmware version is close enough - 6.7.12, so I doubt that this has to do with firmware. Anyway, while trying to follow the ldom man pages, tedu's LDOM guide and/or the ldom guide in undeadly.org, the setup fails: after reaching the point where I see the new logical domain marked as 'next' after running #ldomctl list, I halt the system and reset the ALOM as instructed. It seems until that point that the new configuration has worked and was indeed dumped to non-volatile storage of the SP. However, the only thing that happens is that the machine does not reboot to my primary domain. Stuck in the openboot prompt, I load the generic kernel for the primary domain, which then boots...but then #ldomctl status only shows the primary domain, nothing more. What might I be missing here? As stated before and I reiterate, I am really following instructions step by step - I even went so far as to name my additional domains 'puffy' and 'salmah' just in case. Thanks in advance for any useful hints.
