HP Integrity Virtual Machines 4.3: Installation, Configuration, Administration
replaced in the new virtual machine by the new value in
CPU clock cycles.
The -e and the -E options are mutually exclusive.
-l vm_label
Specifies a descriptive text string for the new virtual
machine. This option can be useful in identifying a specific
virtual machine in the hpvmstatus -V display. The label
can be up to 256 alphanumeric characters, including A-Z,
a-z, 0-9, the dash (—), the underscore (_), and the period
(.). To specify white space, the label must be quoted (" ").
-B start_attr
Specifies the startup behavior of the virtual machine. The
start_attr attribute can have the following
(case-insensitive) values:
• auto: Automatically start the virtual machine when
Integrity VM is initialized on the host.
• manual: Manually start the virtual machine. (This is
the default.)
If the start_attr attribute is set to auto, the virtual machine
starts when Integrity VM is initialized. This occurs when
the VM Host system is booted, and when the Integrity VM
software is stopped and restarted on a running VM Host.
For example, when you upgrade Integrity VM to a new
version on a running system, the software is started
automatically. The VM Host attempts to start all virtual
machines for which the attribute is set to auto. If
insufficient resources exist, some virtual machines might
fail to start.
If the attribute is set to manual, the virtual machine does
not start automatically when Integrity VM is initialized on
the VM Host. This is the default. The virtual machine can
then be started manually with the hpvmstart command
or through its virtual console.
This option does not set the virtual machine's console to
enable booting when the virtual machine is started. This
function must be set with the virtual machine's console.
-O os_type[:version]
Specifies the type and version of the operating system
running on the virtual machine. The response affects the
default selection of certain virtual machine attributes, such
as amount of memory and CPU power. The os_type is one
of the following: HPUX orOPENVMS. This parameter is not
case sensitive. The version is specific to the operating system
type.
The version specifies a descriptive text string of the version
of the operating system. The version string can consist of
up to 256 alphanumeric characters, including A-Z, a-z, 0-9,
the dash (—), the underscore r (_), and the period (.). To
specify white space, then “version” must be quoted.
