HP Integrity Virtual Machines 4.3: Installation, Configuration, Administration

name. The argument specifies the privilege level available
at the virtual console: either admin or oper (the default).
This option can be specified more than once.
-s
Verifies the virtual machine configuration and returns
warnings or errors but does not create the virtual machine.
This option is used to start 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.
The -F and -s options are mutually exclusive.
-x
Specifies whether the new virtual machine uses dynamic
memory and the values associated with it by including the
following keywords:
• -x dynamic_memory_control={0|1}
• -x ram_dyn_type={none|any|driver}
• -x ram_dyn_min=amount
• -x ram_dyn_max=amount
• -x ram_dyn_target_start=amount
Specifies whether the virtual machine's dynamic
memory settings are automatically adjusted. The
ram_dyn_entitlement and amr_enable options
must be set to enable adjustments.
• -x ram_dyn_entitlement=amount
Specifies the minimum guaranteed amount of
memory.
• -x amr_enable={0|1}
Enables or disables AMR monitoring for a guest,
where 1 enables and 0 disables. The monitor (amr
daemon) adjusts the guest size and take its entitlement
into account.
• -x amr_chunk_size=amount
Specifies the increment amount for changes in memory
size (default is 256 MB). Larger values result in faster
memory size growth.
• -x sched_preference={none|cell|ilm}
where:
— none — The default preference. If your application
is predominantly CPU bound, specifying either
ilm or cell will perform the same.
— cell — The cell with the most CPU and memory
space is chosen. When that guest is active, the
