HP Integrity Virtual Machines 4.2: Installation, Configuration, and Administration
-m rsrc-with-absolute-path
For offline migration, specifies a resource of a virtual
machine for copying, translation, and so on. For a network
specification, use the following syntax:
-m
network:lan::vswitch:OLD:network:lan::vswitch:NEW
This option can be specified more than once.
For information about specifying virtual machine storage
and network resources for guests, see hpvmresources(5).
-n
Quits after starting the migration in the background. If not
specified, the hpvmmigrate command continues to run
interactively and reports the migration status until the
migration is complete.
-N new-vm-name
Specifies the new name for the virtual machine being
migrated. 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 (—).
If the virtual machine name exists on the target VM Host,
the virtual machine must have the same UUID as the source
virtual machine, and the virtual machine on the target must
be marked Not Runnable..
-o
Specifies an Online VM Migration of an active guest. To
be compatible for online migrations, both the source and
the target host must have the same processor family (as
reported by the machinfo command). To maintain active
guest network connectivity, a vswitch with the same name
and connected to the same subnet must be configured on
the target VM Host. Also, only whole disk backing storage
consisting of SAN LUNs and null backing store DVD
devices are supported for online guest migration storage.
-p source-vm-number
Specifies the unique number of the virtual machine to be
migrated. The vm-number is reported with the hpvmstatus
command.
Most forms of the hpvmmigrate command require either
the -P option or the -p option.
-P source-vm-name
Specifies the unique name of the virtual machine to be
migrated.
Most forms of the hpvmmigrate command require either
the -P option or the -p option.
-q
Displays fewer informative messages. Some potential error
conditions are still reported.
-Q
For online migrations, set non-interactive mode. Assume
that the output device is not a terminal.
-r amount
For offline migration, specifies the amount of memory
available to this virtual machine.
The size is expressed as integers, optionally followed by
one of these letter:
• M (megabytes)
• G (gigabytes)
