2.2 Upgrading from Earlier Versions of Integrity VM
If the HP Integrity Virtual Machines software is already installed, you can install the new version
on the VM Host system without removing the existing software. Guests and guest applications
are shut down but they are not otherwise affected when you upgrade Integrity VM. This procedure
reboots the VM Host system.
• If you have previously installed the Integrity VM product:
1. Back up the /var/opt/hpvm directory to retain existing Integrity VM configuration
files. When you install Integrity VM, the guest and virtual switch configuration files
are modified in a way that makes them incompatible with the previous version. This
step allows you to drop back to a previous version of Integrity VM, if desired.
2. Log in to each guest on the VM Host and shut down its operating system. The installation
procedure will stop any running guests, but it is preferable to shut them down manually
before you start the installation procedure.
3. Identify the media from which you are installing the software.
— If you have installation media, mount it.
— If you are installing from the network, identify the system and path name
corresponding to the HP-UX software depot that contains the Integrity VM software.
(For example, my.server.example.com:/depot/path.)
• Use the swinstall command to install the software.
— If you are using the command line interface, specify the path to the software depot. For
example, the following command installs only the Integrity VM software:
# swinstall -x autoreboot=true -s my.server.example.com:/depot/path T2767AC vmProvider
— If you are using the installation graphical interface (GUI), perform the following steps:
1. Enter the following command:
# swinstall
2. Select the T2767AC bundle from the list presented by the GUI.
This command installs the latest version of Integrity VM from the software depot.
• If the VMProvider bundle is to be installed or upgraded, specify it when you install the new
version of Integrity VM, or install it separately.
For example, if VMProvider is in the list, you can include it in the command to install the
current version of Integrity VM:
