Using Probe-based IPMP within a LDom

Creating probe-based IPMP within a LDom require two additional steps - creating the virtual switches and adding the virtual interfaces to the guest domain.

1. Configure two physical interfaces into the virtual switches.

ldm add-vsw net-dev=e1000g0 primary-vsw0
ldm add-vsw net-dev=e1000g1 primary-vsw0

2. Add two interfaces to the guest domain. Be sure to save the spconfig after this step

ldm add-vnet vnet1 primary-vsw0
ldm add-vnet vnet2 primary-vsw1
ldm add-spconfig spconfig-two-switches

3. Create the IPMP group as you would for any other Solaris instance. (Note: sol10 is the hostname, and *-test are the test IPs. Don't use these addresses.)

cat /etc/hostname.vnet1:
        sol10-test0 netmask 255.255.255.128 broadcast + group sol10-group deprecated -failover up\
        addif sol10-prod0 netmask 255.255.255.128 broadcast + failover up
cat /etc/hostname.vnet2:
        sol10-test1 netmask 255.255.255.128 broadcast + group sol10-group deprecated -failover up\
        addif sol10-prod0 netmask 255.255.255.128 broadcast + failover up
