The following procedures are required.
Installation and configuration of the admin OS
Install and configure the global zone.
Use UFS as the filesystem.
Set SSH access permission, and enable password authentication for accounts with administrator privileges.
This configuration is necessary to obtain information of Virtual L-Server and VM guest and perform to power operation to them.
Create Solaris containers resource pool
Create the Solaris containers resource pool for global and non-global zone.
If this product is used for managing the resource, create a resource pool for non-global only, and name the resource pool as "pool_resource".
Resource pool name can be changed.
For details please refer to "C.7 Solaris containers" of "Setup Guide for CE"
Set the capping of CPU and capping of the memory to non-global zone.
If set the capping, it will be the managed L-Server in resource management.
The capping supported with this product are as follows.
CPU capping
zone.cpu-cap
memory capping
rcapd
This product does not show the capping value applied to the running non-global zone (by prctl command) but configuration information of the non-global zone.
Therefore set zone.cpu-cap by zonecfg command.
Design a cappping values based on estimated resource usage of a non-global zone.
When non-global zone use the resource beyond capping, it have an impact on system's performance.
Please refer to the relevant version of the document, referring to the following URL:

When non-global zone is in resource management, resource amount of this product is calculated as follows:
CPU capping
Number of CPUs = capping of CPUs / 100 (if there is decimal value, round it up)
CPU performance = (capping of CPUs / (number of CPUs * 100)) * performance of physical CPUs(GHz)
Example
When capping of CPUs is 720 and performance of physical CPUs is 3.0GHz.
Number of CPUs = 720 / 100 (round up) = 8
CPU performance = (720 / (8 * 100)) * 3.0 = 2.7(GHz)
Memory capping
Capping of memory resources
