Initial Configuration of the Control Domain

Initially, all system resources are allocated to the control domain. To allow the creation of other
logical domains, you must release some of these resources.

Do not attempt to use memory dynamic reconfiguration (DR) to perform the initial
configuration of the control domain. Although you can use memoryDR to perform this
configuration without needing a reboot, it is not recommended. The memoryDR approach
might take a very long time (longer than a reboot) and could even potentially fail. Instead, use
the ldm start-reconf command to place the control domain in delayed reconfiguration mode
before you change the memory configuration. Then, you can reboot the control domain after
you complete all the configuration steps.
