When server switchover is performed, the ZFS storage pool is placed in the exported status. When using a ZFS storage pool in Solaris, Solaris Zones, or each domain of OVM for SPARC, it is necessary to create definition file of ZFS storage pool information in order to import the ZFS storage pool. For domains using ZFS storage pools, install a Resource Orchestrator agent and then store the definition file.
For domains not using ZFS storage pools it is not necessary to create a definition file.
Information
When the zpool_info file is stored in a Solaris or Solaris Zone environment of a managed server, storing the zpool_and_zone_recovery.rcxprop file in the manager does not enable it.
The ZFS storage pool is imported according to the definition in the zpool_info file.
It is also necessary to create this file when a guest domain of a server which is registered as an OVM for SPARC VM host is registered as a VM host in the Solaris zone and then a ZFS storage pool is used on that guest domain.

/etc/opt/FJSVrcvat/config
zpool_info
Describe the definition file as below:
File permissions: 644 |
Enter the name of the ZFS storage pool imported into the domain, or the guid of the ZFS storage pool. When there is more than one item, enter one item in each line.
Example
ZFS_pool_1 |
Create a definition file for each domain that uses a ZFS storage pool.
It is not necessary to restart the agent.
Information
Blank spaces before and after the values are ignored.
When adding a comment, start the line with a number sign ("#").
When creating ZFS storage pools which have same name on the control domain and guest domain, specify the guid of each ZFS storage pool.
It is not necessary to specify rpool, which is created by default during OS installation.
