Thanks for the information Liam it was a patch issue once I had checked and
installed all the patches hey presto I could prepare and convert.
When creating standard LDOMs I create a zfs dataset then create a datafile and
build the ldom in that. Importing gives me the option of file or zvol. I have
tried both methods. When I do a ldm list-bindings I get
/ldompool/ldom3/datafile25 - standard build
//ldompool/edev4/disk0 - target file import
/dev/zvol/dsk/ldompool/edev5/disk0 - zvol import
Can someone explain the differences between these virtual devices and any
implications if I want to do zfs snapshot and zfs send to export the ldom to a
new host. Unfortunately it is hard to get enough spare ldom hosts to practice
this.
Thanks again for all the help sofar Mick
