Goal

 Description
In order for resources to be assigned to the LDOM domains, they need to be bound to the appropriate domain. This process binds the virtual resources to actual physical resources available on the system.

If there is not enough physical resource to be allocated, failure will be reported during the binding process. This document list out the steps to confirm the resource bindings are set up correctly.


Symptoms:

One of more of the following are observed or described when one have issue binding resources:

• Insufficient VCPUS resources to bind LDom
• Not enough free memory present to meet this request
• Could not bind requested memory for LDom
• Only <number> physical crypto unit resource(s) available to bind to LDom
• Didn't find a suitable vcc service in a bound service domain to bind guest <guestname> console

Purpose/Scope:

This document describe in the context during guest domain creation. Adding of resources to an active domain can also fail due to lack of additional resources to be assign to a domain. The corrective actions are the same as described here.
