Solaris 11: no vnics in LDOM guest domains
Hi all,
I recently discovered that virtual network interfaces (VNICs) are NOT usable within LDOM guest domains. You can create them, but they aren't functional.
This is a major drawback. You can't use Solaris 11 local zone with excl. IP-Stack (which is the default) configured with anet resources.
All the advantages of VNICs aren't available in Guest Domains.
I really hope vnics in guest domains are coming in the next releases of Solaris 11 / Oracle VM for Sparc.
Like to heare the opinion of other community members about this.
Thanks and regards,
Andy
