HP Virtual Server Environment Management for Integrity Version 4.0 Release Notes

— The properties files for gwlmagent and gwlmcmsd are parsed as English, regardless
of the locale setting. So, be careful of using commas where English would use periods.
— Some items are always in English:
◦ Start-up messages from gwlmagent and gwlmcmsd
◦ Log files
◦ Messages from initial configuration
• Unable to Manage Partitions with Inactive Cells or Deconfigured Cores gWLM does not
support management of partitions with either inactive cells or deconfigured cores. (gWLM
may incorrectly try to allocate and assign those unavailable resources.)
Workaround Configure the cores and activate the cells.
• Unable to Build a Single Shared Resource Domain The following message might be
displayed in the HP SIM interface to gWLM:
Unable to build a single shared resource domain from the set of
specified hosts: myhostA.mydomain.com myhostB.mydomain.com
Workaround This message indicates that there are no supported resource-sharing
mechanisms available between the specified hosts. The message can occur if:
— You have specified hosts in different complexes.
— You have specified hosts in different nPartitions in a complex when there are no iCAP
usage rights to share between the nPartitions.
If you receive this message:
— Inspect the /var/opt/gwlm/gwlmagent.log.0 files on the indicated managed nodes
for error messages.
— If partitions have been renamed, restarting the agents in the complex might correct the
problem.
• gWLM's Secure Communications Requires Perl To secure communications on a gWLM
managed node, /opt/perl/bin/perl (version D.5.8.0.D or later) must be on the system.
• Outdated Size for an nPartition When Using Nested Partitions. (This issue applies to gWLM
2.x and 3.x agents.) When monitoring an SRD with virtual partitions inside an nPartition
on an HP-UX 11i v1 system, the monitored size of the nPartition can be outdated.
Workaround No action is necessary. Ignore the value displayed for nPartition size in an
SRD with nested partitions on an HP-UX 11i v1 system.
• Compatibility with HP Integrity Virtual Machines Global Workload Manager version 4.0 is
not compatible with HP Integrity VM A.02.00 or earlier. If you want to manage virtual
machines using gWLM version 4.0, HP recommends that you upgrade to HP Integrity VM
version A.03.00 or later.
If you do not upgrade, you may see messages such as:
Unable to deploy SRD 'name': A VM encountered with no size
or
Unable to deploy SRD 'name':guestCpuSetEntitlement ():
hpvm_nonvm_cpu_set_entitlement (HPVM_NONVM,
(100.000000,100.000000),FALSE) failed: (0,90)
Workaround Upgrade to HP Integrity VM version A.03.00 or later if possible.
If you cannot upgrade from HP Integrity Virtual Machines version A.01.20, you must install
the gWLM agent version A.02.00.00 on your VM Host.
If you cannot upgrade from HP Integrity Virtual Machines version A.02.00, either install
gWLM agent version A.02.50.00 or use gWLM version 4.0 to manage only virtual machines
