 Give the target_client NFS access to the archive of the source system. To do this,
login to the server that holds the archive (normally the Ignite-UX server). Typically, each
client has its own directory for storing the archives, and the directory is exported only to
the individual client. In this case, you will need to edit the /etc/exports file to allow access
to both the source and target clients:
 Enter: vi /etc/exports
 Append: target-client to the end of the source-client’s line.
 Enter: exportfs -av
 Boot the target-client from the Ignite-UX server. Then when you install the system, you
can select from the recovery configurations of the source system.
 Change the system networking parameters for the target system during the installation.
Loading VM Guest from Ignite
Once the Ignite-UX server is configured for your VM, you’ll need to access its virtual console.
To do this, first power on the VM (e.g., with hpvmstart –P vmguest2) and use hpvmconsole to
access the console (e.g., hpvmconsole –P vmguest2 –fi).
The first release of Integrity VM’s console and Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) does not
have lanboot implemented. It is easy to work around this by following the sequence of
instructions that follow.
Select Boot option maintenance menu and press enter. At the Boot Maintenance Manager
menu select Boot from a File and press enter.
