hpvmstart: Successful start initiation of guest 'host1'
The virtual machine host1 is started. Now the guest operating system must be installed.
NOTE: You might receive the following note-level message in the /var/opt/hpvm/common/
command.log file under certain circumstances:
mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss|NOTE|host|root|Unable to open file '/dev/rdisk/diskxxx' - Device busy.
This note might be logged if:
• A guest is configured with an attached avio_stor burner:
resource: -a burner:avio_stor::[b,d,t]:attach:pass-through-device-path
• The guest is then booted to EFI.
• Then the hpvmmodify command is run to add a device or remove a device other than the
burner.
You may safely ignore this message.
For information about creating HP-UX guests, see Chapter 8.
7.5 Cloning virtual machines
Once you have created a guest, you can quickly and easily create additional guests by using the
hpvmclone command. Like the hpvmcreate, hpvmmigrate, and hpvmmodify commands,
the hpvmclone command accepts the command options listed in Table 11 (page 77) for specifying
virtual devices, network interfaces, and other virtual machine characteristics. This allows you to
create new guests with similar characteristics but different virtual resources.
Table 17 describes the options you can use with the hpvmclone command.
Table 17 Options to the hpvmclone Command
DescriptionOption
Specifies the name of the existing virtual machine to be cloned. You must specify
either the -P option or the -p option.
-P vm-name
Specifies the number of the existing virtual machine to be cloned. You must
specify either the -P option or the -p option.
-p vm-number
Specifies the IP address used to connect to the guest's virtual iLO Remote
Console. The address must be specified in IPv4 dot notation or 0. If 0 is entered,
then the guest will no longer have virtual iLO Remote Console access using IP.
-K console_IP_Addr
Specifies the IPv4 subnet mask used with the option when setting up the IP
interface to be used for accessing the virtual iLO Remote Console for this guest.
The address is entered in dot notation form.
-Lconsole_IP_Addr_Netmask
Specifies the name of the new virtual machine (the clone). The clone-vm-name
can be up to 255 alphanumeric characters. The same virtual machine name
cannot already exist on the same VSP system.
