13. Solaris Containers
•Light weight environments
>“Just want to test something”
•Highly secure environments
>Need to isolate the application from the kernel
•Highly dynamic environments
>Many environments sharing the same resources
•High performance environments
>For apps with many threads or help duplicate them
• Test different application versions against the same
hardware and OS

19. Logical Domains
•Each virtual machine appears as an entirely
independent machine
>own kernel, patches, tuning parameters
>own user accounts, administrators
>own disks
>own console and OBP
>own network interfaces, MAC & IP addresses
>each domain can start, stop and reboot independently of each
other
>scale up to number of CMT hardware threads
19

20. Logical Domains
• Virtualization and partitioning of machine resources
> Each domain is a full virtual machine, with a dynamically
reconfigurable sub-set of machine resources, and its own independent OS
> Protection & isolation via SPARC hardware and hypervisor firmware
