Hi,

The hypervisor for T-Series SPARC servers is Logical Domains (LDoms) also now 
known as Oracle VM Server for SPARC. You can find out more about it here:

Subject: [xen-discuss] OpenSolaris Sparc Xen boot problem

I am running OpenSolaris build 134 on a T1000 (Sparc).

It has been an uphill battle getting this far.  Many of the commands I
find in the various documentation won't work for me.

------------------------------------------------------------
st...@t1000:~# pfexec pkg install xvm-gui
Creating Plan                          
pkg: 'xvm-gui' matches multiple packages
        system/xvm/xvm-gui
        xvm-gui

st...@t1000:~# pfexec svcadm enable milestone/xvm
svcadm: Pattern 'milestone/xvm' doesn't match any instances
------------------------------------------------------------

I have managed to get What I believe are the necessary packages
installed, but can't enable them:

st...@t1000:~# pkginfo |grep xvm
system      SUNWxvmh                         Hypervisor Header Files
system      SUNWxvmhvm                       Hypervisor HVM
system      SUNWxvmr                         Hypervisor (Root)
system      SUNWxvmu                         Hypervisor (Usr)
st...@t1000:~# 


st...@t1000:~# svcs -a|grep xvm
disabled        9:59:07 svc:/system/xvm/store:default
disabled        9:59:08 svc:/system/xvm/domains:default
disabled        9:59:09 svc:/system/xvm/console:default
disabled        9:59:10 svc:/system/xvm/xend:default
st...@t1000:~# 


I believe the current problem is Xen.gz is not loading on boot.  I am
trying to understand what I need in /rpool/boot/menu.lst.

On:  http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Community+Group
+xen/developers#5_Booting

I found a link under "Booting":

To run Solaris as a dom0 with the hypervisor, there must be an entry
in /boot/grub/menu.lst that specifies the hypervisor, as described here

But when I follow that link, I get:

"You are not allowed to view this document or perform this action"

Can someone please point me to the most recent documentation for getting
Xen running on OpenSolaris build 134 (Sparc)?

I'm about ready to throw in the towel.

Thank you,

Steve.
