System-IPF specifies a set of default values and two for Ignite-UX clients (vmguest1 and
vmguest2) that use those defaults. This particular default entry has four values that must be
modified for your configuration:
 bp – The IP address of the Ignite-UX server to be used to respond to clients.
 sm – The subnet mask being used by the clients.
 gw – The network gateway address.
 ds – The domain name server address.
Typographical errors in any of these will cause no end of enigmatic problems. Check the entries
carefully.
To add another entry for a new VM, you need to specify an entry similar to that of vmguest1 and
vmguest2 above, where the first attribute is the host name of the new VM. The other three
attributes are defined as follows:
 tc – The defaults to be used for this group of clients (in the example above, this
will be System-IPF).
 ip – The (fixed) IP address of the client.
 ha – The client hardware (MAC) address.
The MAC address for a VM can be obtained from hpvmstatus or from the VM’s console (the
VM console will be discussed later). For example, the MAC address is the last field of its LAN
entry displayed in the output of hpvmstatus:
vmhost:/>hpvmstatus -P vmguest1 | grep lan
vswitch lan vswa 0 0 0 92-58-ee-ee-15-16
Uncomment the following line on /etc/inetd.conf:
bootps dgram udp wait root /usr/lbin/bootpd bootpd
and force inetd to reread the /etc/inetd.conf:
# inetd -c
