Provisioning storage to guests with Flexible Storage Sharing volumes of control domain
Flexible Storage Sharing (FSS) volumes created with shared nothing storage of the control domains of multiple physical hosts can be used in provisioning storage to the guest domains. FSS volumes are mirrored across the control domains cluster nodes. The applications running in the guest domains on one physical host can be failed over to the guests running on another physical host that has active node of the control domain cluster. Live logical domain migration is also feasible with FSS volumes in control domains even though the target host during migration does not have access to the entire storage of the FSS volume.
Figure: FSS storage provisioned to guest domains illustrates storage for an FSS volume provisioned to guest domains.
Note:
When performing Live LDOM migration, make sure that the Support Repository Updates (SRUs) in both the source and the target physical hosts are compatible. See the Oracle documentation for more information on LDOM migration.
Veritas recommends the use of high-speed GAB interconnects when a physical host is running an LDOM (guest domain) with an FSS volume as the root or data disk and local storage is not available for the FSS volume on the physical host.
