Hi Octave,
There is an updated application note which explains support/visibility for monitoring applications that run inside LDom. The link to the note is http://library.veritas.com/docs/293324 <http://library.veritas.com/docs/293324> . 1. VCS allows users to specify an XML configuration of LDom by means of LDom::ConfigFile attribute. If set, VCS will import the configuration before onlining the LDom (if the LDom configuration does not already exist). 2. The configuration file needs to be in sync across all nodes or can be on a shared storage. If it is on a shared storage, you can configure a Mount resource and make the LDom resource parent of the Mount resource. But really the configuration file is only used for the first time the LDom is being brought up on that particular node. The LDom creation is a onetime activity for which users can also do manually if they want to avoid the complexity of keeping the configuration file in sync or on a shared disk. 3. Using the LDom::NumCPU attribute, the agent can attach/detach the VCPUs for a particular LDom. Hence, the agent does not need to deport/remove the full LDom configuration in its offline/clean entry point.

It can only move a guest domain between servers manually or if there is a node fault. Other than that, it doesn't have any visibility into the guest domain. It looks to me as if VCS is not deport/importing the guest domain configuration. Not sure how they are doing that if they assume that you keep the configs insync between the servers manually. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Octave J.
