HP Integrity Virtual Machines Release Notes Version A.03.50

The guest parameter settings for Linux guests are listed in Table 3-1 (page 31).
For information about installing Linux guests, see the HP Integrity Virtual Machines Installation,
Configuration, and Administration A.03.50 manual.
1.3 Creating Virtual Machine Administrator and Operator Accounts
In versions of Integrity VM prior to A.03.00, only Admin console access is available, and only
one such account per guest is allowed. The administrator account name must match the guest
name. The new version of Integrity VM provides proper access controls and individual
accountability for these accounts. For more information, see Section 6.3 (page 49).
1.4 Integrity VM Command Changes
The Integrity VM commands have changed in the following ways:
• The hpvminfo command has been enhanced to print information that is accessible through
the public APIs.
• The hpvmnet command now displays the adapter type for each port defined on the vswitch
and provides the new option -A, which displays the AVIO port specific statistics. For example,
if you have a guest with AVIO port, you can use the hpvmnet command as follows:
# hpvmnet -S myswitch -p 11 -A
Vswitch Name : myswitch
Max Number of Ports : 100
Port Number : 11
Port State : Active
Active VM : avio_vm
Untagged VlanId : none
Reserved VMs : avio_vm
Adaptor : avio_lan
Inbound Octets : 32714
Inbound Unicast Pkts (wire) : 197
Inbound Unicast Pkts (local) : 0
Inbound Non-Unicast Pkts (wire) : 0
Inbound Non-Unicast Pkts (local) : 0
Inbound Discards : 0
Outbound Octets : 19580
Outbound Unicast Pkts (wire) : 241
Outbound Unicast Pkts (local) : 0
Outbound Non-Unicast Pkts : 11
Outbound Discards : 0
There is no distinction between “Outbound Non-Unicast Pkts” sent locally or on the wire,
because all outbound non-unicast packets are always sent to both the other local interfaces
and also to the wire.
To clear the AVIO statistics, use the -Z command option.
• The hpvmcreate, hpvmclone, and hpvmmodify commands have been changed to support
the addition, modification, and deletion of AVIO LAN and storage devices.
• The hpvmstatus command now displays the new AVIO adapter types.
• The hpvmresources manpage, which describes the syntax for specifying storage and network
devices when creating or modifying a guest, has been updated to include a description of
the avio_lan and avio_stor options.
• The hpvmmodify, hpvmcreate, and hpvmclone commands now include the -x
sched_preference option for specifying either Cell Local Memory (CLM), Interleaved
Memory (ILM), or None.
