Leadership in Virtualization
The Solaris 10 Operating System and Logical Domains provides
DigiTar with rock-solid fault isolation and stronger partitioning of
server resources. These two qualities power the stability we need to ensure our customers
receive business-critical communications 24 hours a day,
365 days a year and at a competitive price.
Jason Williams
COO and CTO
DigiTar
Our recent test of Integra on UltraSPARC T2 and UltraSPARC T2 Plus processor-based systems showed excellent performance and
scalability. Customers can reap significant benefits from using LDoms on these CoolThreads
servers, resulting in huge savings by reducing number of additional systems, low power consumption
and less space.

Case Study: Primus CanadaSolution
• Server consolidation Proof-of-conceptthrough Sun’s Try and Buy Program
• Deployed proven LDoms layout using Solaris 10 partitioning and virtualization capabilities
• Products Include: Sun Fire T2000 Server, Solaris 10 Operating System, Oracle VM Server for SPARC (LDoms), Sun Try and Buy Program
Results
• Increased performance and efficiency of servers
• Reduced physical space requirements with virtualization and consolidation
• Lowered energy consumption
• Gained a highly stable environment
“When we failed over from the old system to the Sun Fire T2000, the application went from 50 percent CPU utilization, down to 15 percent. We were just dumbfounded to learn that it was only using 15 percent of one core of this eight-core CPU.”

32
Consolidate with Oracle VM Server for SPARC
• Consolidate many applications• Isolation allows each domain to have its own patch level• Maximize the use of the Chip Multithread (CMT) architecture• Larger and larger systems are making virtualization an essential tool
33
Dynamic Reconfiguration and Virtual Resources
AM/Day/Week
PM/Night/Weekend
• Adjust your systems to your business requirements on demand> Dynamically: CPU & Virtual IO> Delayed Reconfig: Memory
• Improve utilization by balancing resources between domains
• Virtual network/switch support together with dedicated hardware mapping
34
Domain Mobility
AM/Day/Week
PM/Night/Weekend
• Migrate workloads between logical domains without shutting down the application
• Keep services running in preparation for planned maintenance• Save and reduce energy costs doing “mini-consolidations” in quiet
periods• Be proactive and be able to react to any service degradation
35
Physical-to-Virtual (P2V) Conversion
• Move applications easily to Oracle VM Server for SPARC> Source: Oracle Solaris 8, 9 or 10> Target: Guest domain running Oracle Solaris 10
• Three easy steps with ldmp2v
P2V Tool
• ldmp2v upgrades your environment to be an Oracle Solaris 10 guest on Oracle VM Server for SPARC
> Step 1: Collect
– Creates archive of source system
– Collects config info for disk, files and network– Non destructive
> Step 2: Prepare
– Sets up target guest domain based on source config
– Creates and assigns virtual disk, virtual network created and assigned
– Restores archives into virtual disks
> Step 3: Convert
– Boots from Oracle Solaris ISO file or Jumpstart profiles, and then upgrades
37
CPU Power Management
• Save even more power by automatically powering off unused cores
• Two modes:– Performance
– All cores turned on at all time (what you have now)
– Elastic– Cores are dynamically powered on/off as required by the system
• Behavior must be set via the ILOM but can be monitored from LDoms
38
Configuration Assistant – Ease of Deployment
• Help you easily create logical domains. – After gathering the
configuration data, the Configuration Assistant determines the best way to create a deployment to suit your requirements.
• The Configuration Assistant is available as both a graphical user interface (GUI) and terminal-based tool.
