HP Integrity Virtual Machines 4.3: Installation, Configuration, Administration
NOTE: The rmsf -L command should not be executed
on an Integrity VM server until all guest devices names
have been changed to agile device names.
The following commands are helpful for reconfiguring
guests to use agile device names:
• insf
By default, creates both persistent and legacy DSFs
for new devices.
• insf -L
Restores legacy DSFs and legacy configuration
information.
• rmsf -L
Aids in migration by removing all legacy DSFs and
legacy configuration information.
• ioscan —m dsf
Maps persistent DSFs to their equivalent legacy DSFs
and vice versa.
• ioscan -N
Prints persistent DSFs when used with the -n option
to list DSFs.
• 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
