HP Integrity Virtual Machines 4.2: Installation, Configuration, and Administration

• io_redirect_dsf
Associates a new disk with an existing set of DSFs.
Used when replacing an internal disk or a disk in a
JBOD.
• hpvmmodify -P guest —m rsrc
Used to modify backing devices for guest devices.
-N new-vm-name
Specifies the new name for the virtual machine being
modified, assuming no virtual machine with that name
already exists. The name can consist of up to 256
alphanumeric characters, including A-Z, a-z, 0-9, the dash
(—), the underscore (_), and period (.). The virtual machine
name cannot start with a dash (-).
The virtual machine name can be changed only by using
the -N option.
The name change takes effect immediately.
NOTE: Do not change the VM name while the virtual
machine is running.
-c number-vcpus
Specifies the number of virtual CPUs and vCPUs his virtual
machine sees at boot time along with the range that the
vCPUs must be within. The specification of the range is
optional. When the range is not specified, a default range
is used consisting of a minimum of one vCPU and a
maximum equal to the maximum vCPUs supported for
the specific guest operating system type.
Integrity VM Version 4.2 supports up to 8 vCPUS for all
guest types. For example, to set a guest with four vCPUs
with no range, use the following command:
# hpvmmodify -P guestname -c 4
To set a quest with four vCPUs with a range of two to six
vCPUs, use the following command:
# hpvmmodify -P guestname -c 4:2:6
-r amount
Specifies the amount of memory available to this virtual
machine.
The size is expressed as an integer, optionally followed by
one of these units:
• M (megabytes)
• G (gigabytes)
If the letter is omitted, the default unit is megabytes.
-g [+]group[:{admin |
oper}]
Adds (+ or unspecified) or removes (-) a group
authorization. A VM Host user account that is a member
of an authorized group can use the hpvmconsole
command to manage this guest. The {admin|oper}
argument specifies the privilege level available at the
hpvmconsole — either admin or oper (the default). Do
