A VLAN tag can be configured on an AVIO localnet vswitch port. The guest lan bound to this
vswitch port can be used only to communicate with another guest lan bound to a vswitch port
that does not have a VLAN tag configured.
• Use of the hpvmupgrade and the p2vassist commands is deprecated starting in the next
Integrity VM release.
• Integrity VM V4.3 does not support Microsoft Windows and Linux guests. Version 4.2.5 was
the last version to support Microsoft Windows and Linux guests. For information about V4.2.5
support, see the HP Integrity Virtual Machines 4.2.5: Release Notes on the BSC website at:
HP Integrity Virtual Machines and Online VM Migration
• Use of legacy device special files (DSFs) to define virtual storage is deprecated starting in
Version 4.3.
Support for the use of legacy DSFs to define virtual storage (including virtual disks and DVDs)
are deprecated. Customers should begin planning to use persistent (agile) DSFs when defining
their virtual storage devices. HP recommends the use of persistent DSFs (for example, those
with pathnames such as /dev/rdisk/disk##) for better storage availability and reliability.
To check for the use of legacy DSFs, use the following command:
# hpvmstatus -P guestname -d | grep -w rdsk
