Integrating with HP Integrity Virtual
Machines (Integrity VM)
HP Integrity Virtual Machines is a robust soft partitioning and
virtualization technology that provides operating systems isolation,
shared CPU resources (with sub-core granularity), shared I/O, and
automatic, dynamic resource allocation. It is available for HP-UX 11i v2
running on HP Integrity servers.
You can run WLM both on the Integrity VM Host and in an Integrity VM
(guest), but each WLM runs as an independent instance.
Given a system with Integrity VM installed, you can run WLM on the
system itself (on the Integrity VM Host) and inside an Integrity VM
(guest), but each WLM runs as an independent instance.
The following figure illustrates how WLM can be used. Here, WLM runs
on the Integrity VM Host and in three of the four guests.
