HP Integrity Virtual Server Manager 6.0 User Guide

Using the Modify menu
The Virtual Server Manager Modify menu allows you to perform actions on a selected virtual
partition. The options displayed when you select the Modify menu using Virtual Server Manager
from HP Matrix Operating Environment are shown in Figure 45. The options are available only
when you are in a VM Properties view or in a view in which you have selected a virtual partition,
such as on the VSP Virtual Partitions tab. You can only modify one virtual partition at a time.
If the virtual partition being modified is an HP Serviceguard package, you must make the same
modifications to the virtual partition on the other VSPs in the cluster.
NOTE: When you use Virtual Server Manager from HP SMH, this menu includes an additional
option that allows you to modify WBEM credentials. This option can be available from any Virtual
Server Manager view.
