HP-UX vPars and Integrity VM V6.3 Administrator Guide

2.6.5 Applications to be avoided on a vPar or Integrity VM
HP strongly recommends that you do not run the following types of applications on a vPar or VM
guest:
• Virtualization platform (HP-UX vPars and/or Integrity VM software)
• Utility pricing tools (run on the VSP)
• Capacity planning tools (run on the VSP)
• Applications that require direct access to physical hardware (for example, disaster-tolerant
solutions)
You must purchase licenses for any software you run on a VM or a vPar, including the HP-UX
operating system and any HP or third-party layered software. You can purchase the licenses for
HP software under the HP Virtualization Licensing program. For more information, contact your
HP support representative.
Before installing any software product, HP recommends to read the product release notes to get
the latest information.
