HP Integrity Virtual Machines Release Notes Version A.03.50
For VM Hosts that will support guests as Serviceguard packages, the Mission Critical Operating
Environment (MCOE) can also be used.
2.1.4 Upgrade HP WBEM Services
Integrity VM fails to install if the version of WBEM Services on your VM Host is old. The VM
Host system must be running HP WBEM Services A.02.00.10 or later. The HP WBEM Services
for HP-UX software bundle (B8465BA) is available as part of the HP-UX operating system, or
download the software from www.hp.com. This version of HP WBEM Services is also required
to install VM Provider and VM Manager.
2.1.5 Installing the Migration Tools Including hpvmmigrate and Physical-to-Virtual
Assist Tools
The VMMigrate SD-UX bundle no longer exists. The functionality delivered with this bundle is
now delivered with installation of the Integrity VM bundle T2767AC. Installation of T2767AC
causes the old VMMigrate bundle to be automatically removed. The functionality previously
delivered with the VMMigrate bundle has been replaced by the contents of two SD-UX products
within the T2767AC bundle, VMMIGRATE and VMCONVERT. The VMMIGRATE product
contains the hpvmmigrate command along with its supporting tools and manual. The
physical-to-virtual tools and documentation are delivered in the VMCONVERT product. These
SD-UX products and others can be seen with the swlist command:
swlist -R T2767AC
The repackaging of the physical-to-virtual tools in the T2767AC.VMCONVERT product, allows
them to be installed on any Integrity HP-UX 11i v2 system, not just on a VM Host or a virtual
machine. This results in more practical use of the physical-to-virtual tooks enabling them on
physical Integrity servers, vPars, nPars, and so on.
To install the physical-to-virtual tools on an Integrity HP-UX 11i v2 system, enter the following
command:
# swinstall -s path to Integrity VM install media T2767AC.VMCONVERT
This installs only the physical-to-virtual tools without any of the other Integrity VM functionality.
NOTE: Be sure to completely specify T2767AC.VMCONVERT, so that you do not accidentally
transform your host to a VM Host that is left in an unknown state.
2.1.6 Installing VM Provider
To install the VM Provider bundle with the Integrity VM software on the VM Host, enter the
following command:
# swinstall -x autoreboot=true -s my.server.foo.com:/depot/path T2767AC vmProvider
To install the VM Provider bundle with the Integrity VM software on the HP-UX guest, see
Section 4.2.1 (page 38):
If you install the VMProvider on either the VM Host or a guest, make sure that the system is
using HP WBEM Services A.02.00.10 or higher. For example:
# swlist WBEMServices
# Initializing...
# Contacting target "alien2"...
#
# Target: alien2:/
#
# WBEMServices A.02.00.11 WBEM Services CORE
