In this example, a 7GB volume is created:primary# vxassist -g boot_dg make bootdisk-vol 7g2 Configure a service by exporting the /dev/vx/dsk/boot_dg/bootdisk1-volvolume as a virtual disk:primary# ldm add-vdiskserverdevice \/dev/vx/dsk/boot_dg/bootdisk1-vol bootdisk1-vol@primary-vds03 Add the exported disk to logical domain1:primary# ldm add-vdisk vdisk1 bootdisk1-vol@primary-vds0 logical domain14 Follow Oracle’s recommended steps to install and boot a guest domain, anduse the virtual disk vdisk1 as the boot disk during the net install.
