Doing a little experimenting with LDoms on a T5240 we've got I've run into an interesting scenario with disk resizing.
LDoms 1.2 Solaris 10 u7 (host and guest) I'm using ZFS as a back-end for my guests. When I first create the volumes and add them to the guests I can resize them all I want. The moment I label them in the guest through format (or add them to a ZFS pool which gives an EFI label) it seems I can no longer resize them. Example: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [root at host ~]# zfs create -V 10G ldoms/guest/data [root at host ~]# ldm add-vdsdev /dev/zvol/dsk/ldoms/guest/data vol1 at primary-vds0 [root at host ~]# ldm add-vdisk vdisk1 vol1 at primary-vds0 guest ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [root at guest ~]# format format> verify Volume name = < > ascii name = <SUN-DiskImage-10GB cyl 34950 alt 2 hd 1 sec 600> pcyl = 34952 ncyl = 34950 acyl = 2 nhead = 1 nsect = 600 Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks 0 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 1 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 2 backup wm 0 - 34949 10.00GB (34950/0/0) 20970000 3 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 4 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 5 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 6 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 7 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [root at host ~]# zfs set volsize=15G ldoms/guest/data ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [root at guest ~]# format format> verify Volume name = < > ascii name = <SUN-DiskImage-15GB cyl 52426 alt 2 hd 1 sec 600> pcyl = 52428 ncyl = 52426 acyl = 2 nhead = 1 nsect = 600 Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks 0 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 1 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 2 backup wm 0 - 52425 15.00GB (52426/0/0) 31455600 3 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 4 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 5 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 6 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 7 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 format> label format> verify Volume name = < > ascii name = <SUN-DiskImage-15GB cyl 52426 alt 2 hd 1 sec 600> pcyl = 52428 ncyl = 52426 acyl = 2 nhead = 1 nsect = 600 Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks 0 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 1 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 2 backup wm 0 - 52425 15.00GB (52426/0/0) 31455600 3 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 4 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 5 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 6 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 7 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [root at host ~]# zfs set volsize=20G ldoms/guest/data ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [root at guest ~]# format format> verify Volume name = < > ascii name = <SUN-DiskImage-15GB cyl 52426 alt 2 hd 1 sec 600> pcyl = 52428 ncyl = 52426 acyl = 2 nhead = 1 nsect = 600 Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks 0 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 1 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 2 backup wm 0 - 52425 15.00GB (52426/0/0) 31455600 3 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 4 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 5 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 6 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 7 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Is there some magic command I'm missing or did I misinterpret Bug ID 6699271 and/or patch ID 139562-02? http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6699271 http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-21-139562-02-1 -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
