Here is a flash animation of a UltraSPARC T2 system booting 63 guest + 1 control domain = 64 domains, i.e, 1 per hardware strand.

Here is one of A Linux SPARC and Soalris domain booting on the T2000. It also shows dynamic configuration (adding and removing) of cpus from a running domain.

Here is one showing redundant I/O service domains and virtual I/O failover all on a 2U T2000 machine.
