I cannot create an hvm Solaris domU with more than 1 virtual 
cpu (vcpus=2).  Further, when I create a domU with a single
virtual cpu (vcpus=1) and then increase the vcpus to some value
greater than 1, the domU takes forever (in excess of an hour)
to boot.  Then once the domU appeared to have completed booting,
I couldn't login via the console or over ssh.

Methods tried of increasing the vcpus for an existing domU:
1. Run the following:
    xm shutdown <domU>
    xm vcpu-set <domU> 2
    xm start <domU>

2. Edit the domU configure file, increasing the vcpus value
   greater than 1.  Then run the following:
    xm shutdown <domU>
    xm delete <domU>
    xm create <domU_cfg_file>

Here is my environment:
  system: X4150 with 2x quad core CPUs
  dom0 OS: snv_81
  domU OS: S10u4 (installed from iso file)

Has anyone successfully (without extreme slowness of domU)
created a domU with vcpus => 2?  If so, how?

If this is a known bug, what is the bug number and what
is the eta to fix?

Thanks in advance,
Brad
