Chapter 2 Important Information About the SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers 9
Logical Domains
Logical Domains is a virtualized hardware environment operating on the SPARC platform. It
can divide one platform into multiple virtual server environments, and each virtual server can
run its own independent instance of the operating system. Using Logical Domains (LDoms)
increases your server usage, efficiency, and return on investment, and also reduces your
server footprint.
Oracle VM Server for SPARC (Formerly, called Logical Domains Manager) software creates
and manages logical domains, and maps logical domains to physical resources.
Note –
The Logical Domains MIB must be configured before you can use it. For the
configuration instructions, see the
README
file located in the Logical Domains MIB
installation directory,
/opt/ldoms_mib
.
