-x keyword=parameter
Suppresses all resource conflict checks and associated warning messages
(force mode). This option is primarily intended for use by scripts and other
noninteractive applications. Note that you will receive no notification of
potential resource problems for a virtual machine created with the F option.
NOTE: The -F option is deprecated in Integrity VM commands; this option
should be used only at the direction of HP Support.
-F
Verifies the virtual machine configuration and returns warnings or errors, but
does not create the virtual machine.
This option is used to invoke the hpvmcreate command's resource checking
for a virtual machine configuration without actually creating the virtual machine.
If the -s option is not specified, the virtual machine is created even if resource
warnings occur.
-s
Group with administrator or operator privileges over the virtual machine. Enter
the group name for group, and enter either admin or oper.
-g group[:admin | oper]
User with administrator or operator privileges over the virtual machine. Enter
the user name for user, and enter either admin or oper.
-u user[:admin | oper]
