Ldom Ram Upgrade

To upgrade Ram on the logical domain we first login to the base-machine/Controller Domain.


Calculate the total memory
>>prtdiag -v |more

Save the existing configuration as backup/rollback plan
>>ldm add-config config-name

To check for the backed up configuration
>>ldm list-config

>>ldm add-memory 8G Ldom-name
The above command will increase the existing  Ram by 8Gb.


Save the new configuration as backup/rollback plan
>>ldm add-config new-config-name

Just to make sure that the configuration was backed up
>>ldm list-config


And that’s it!
