It simplifies the deployment of automated workload management policies across multiple servers, and provides centralized monitoring and reporting and improved server utilization to assist in meeting your service level objectives. Using Integrity Virtual Server Manager with Matrix Operating Environment for HP-UX, you can create, view, and modify gWLM policies for VMs or vPars.
2 Installing Integrity Virtual Server Manager This chapter discusses how to install Integrity Virtual Server Manager on your system or on the systems you will manage, including setup and software requirements, licensing requirements, and how to set WBEM security credentials. System and software requirements System requirements for the VSP, VMs, and vPars are described in the HP-UX vPars and Integrity VM Administrator Guide manual.
• The VM Provider provides VSP and guest configuration data. This information is delivered using WBEM. To use Integrity Virtual Server Manager to view configuration data, install the VM Provider (VMProvider bundle) that is provided with Integrity VM. Install the VM Provider on the VSP and on each VM or vPar when you install the HP Integrity VM product. If you upgrade Integrity VM, be sure to keep the VM Provider up to date, too.
#/usr/sbin/swlist VMMGR NOTE: Beginning with the HP-UX 11i v3 March 2009 Operating Environment Update Release (OEUR), you can optionally install Integrity Virtual Server Manager on HP SMH as part of the VSE-OE or DC-OE. Licensing requirements The licensing requirements for Integrity Virtual Server Manager on HP SMH include the following: On HP SMH, Integrity Virtual Server Manager is installed separately on a VSP. You must have a license for Integrity VM and have Integrity VM installed on that VSP.
Setting WBEM credentials in HP Systems Insight Manager Any VMs or vPars that are not managed nodes do not have any credentials available, and Integrity Virtual Server Manager cannot contact them. These machines are displayed, but some of the information that can be gathered from the managed nodes is not displayed for non-managed nodes. You can set credentials in HP Systems Insight Manager for a global configuration across multiple systems by selecting Options→Protocol Settings→Global Protocol Settings...
individual systems, Integrity Virtual Server Manager does not collect utilization data and operating system information for the excluded systems. You can also save the user name and password entries in obscured format in the file system. This allows you to use the same setting each time you enter Integrity Virtual Server Manager through HP SMH. To save these entries, select the Save user name and password settings in the file system check box, and then click OK.
When a utilization meter is dimmed, a label next to the meter indicates the probable cause. These labels and status indicators are described in “Utilization meter status/error information” (page 137). Virtual LAN interface I/O utilization on the VM or vPar Properties Network tab: For a VM or vPar with invalid credentials, either the No Perm. or No Data label appears next to the meter.
1. Locate the WBEM services provider certificate file (cert.pem) on the VM or vPar to which you want to connect. To find the correct file, open the WBEM services Provider configuration file, which can be found in the following locations: • For Windows: %PEGASUS_HOME%\cimserver_current.conf • For HP-UX: $PEGASUS_HOME/cimserver_current.conf (The default value for PEGASUS_HOME on HP-UX is /var/opt/wbem.) The location of the server certificate file is configured by the sslCertificateFilePath setting.

NOTE: The Capacity Advisor Data item is displayed only when you use Integrity Virtual Server Manager with Matrix Operating Environment for HP-UX; it is not displayed when using Integrity Virtual Server Manager through HP SMH. The accessibility of the other menu items depends on the current view and selections. For example, to access the VM or vPar log from the VSP Virtual Servers tab, a VM or vPar must be selected, as shown in Figure 58.
6 Working with VMs or vPars This chapter describes tasks you can perform to create and manage VMs or vPars and their resources. NOTE: Integrity Virtual Server Manager version 6.1 supports only one type of guest. If the first guest created on Virtual Server Manager is a vPar, then only vPar guests can be created on that VSP. If the first guest created is a VM, then only VMs can be created on that VSP. But, with Integrity Virtual Server Manager version 6.2, VMs and vPars coexist on the same host.
3. Specify Memory Specify the amount of memory for the VM. If the VSP has Integrity VM 3.0 or later installed and the OS type you chose in step 1 supports dynamic memory (for example, specifying HP-UX as the intended guest OS, with Integrity VM 3.0 or later installed on the VSP), the memory screen allows you to set dynamic memory parameters.

If you want to enter the Bus, Device, and MAC parameters for the selected DIOs, select Specify virtual address parameters (advanced). If you do not want to enter the parameters, leave the check box blank. Click Add to List to add the selected DIOs to the VM. The Specify DIOs page appears, where the selected DIOs are listed.
If the VSP is running HP-UX 11i v3, the Add Storage Device screen gives you the choice of listing storage devices by their agile address (the default) or by their legacy address. HP recommends using agile device addressing when configuring storage devices. This provides benefits especially for multipath devices. With legacy addressing, the screen lists one entry for each path to a storage device that has multiple paths.
NOTE: If you use Integrity Virtual Server Manager to manage a VSP running Integrity VM Version 3.5 or earlier, Integrity Virtual Server Manager does not fully support virtual device special files located in /hpap (introduced in HP StorageWorks Secure Path software Version 3.0F SP2) as backing devices for virtual storage.
on the VSP and the VM. If the intended OS on the VM does not support AVIO, you are warned of this. In addition, HP strongly recommends that AVIO components (such as drivers and libraries) on the VM and VSP be updated to the latest release of the OS. If the VM OS is Windows or Linux, install additional AVIO-compatible drivers on the VM; the Windows and Linux AVIO drivers include instructions for installing the drivers on VMs.
NOTE: If the VM is being managed by gWLM, you cannot modify the vCPU entitlement. When you access the Virtual Machine vCPU Entitlement page, the following error message is displayed, where virtual-machine-name is the name of the VM: The processor entitlement for VM virtual-machine-name cannot be modified because it is being managed by gWLM. To adjust the processor entitlement for this VM, use gWLM to change the policy associated with this VM.
NOTE: The list of possible backing devices for the storage device you want to add can include file and directory backing devices that have not been associated with a particular VM or vPar, or that were associated with VMs or vPars that have been removed or from which the associated virtual devices have been removed. You can create a file as a backing storage device for a virtual disk. You can add DVD burners, tape devices, and changers if they are emulated SCSI adapters; they are added as attached devices.
1. 2. From the VSP General tab, select the VSP Virtual Servers tab (or any tab that allows you to select one or more VMs). Select one or more VMs to start by clicking the appropriate check boxes. Alternatively, you can access the VM Properties view, in which case no selection is necessary; the VM being viewed is implicitly selected. 3. Select Tools→Start Virtual Machine... from the Integrity Virtual Server Manager menu bar. A page similar to that shown in Figure 59 is displayed.
NOTE: If the OS is running on a VM that you want stopped, HP recommends that you shut down the OS before stopping the VM. This ensures that all applications are shut down cleanly. You cannot stop a VM that is currently migrating online. You must wait until migration completes. If the selected VM has migrated to another VSP (the target), the VM (on the source VSP) is in the Not Runnable state: attempts to stop the VM will fail. 1. 2.
Restarting VMs When you choose to restart one or more VMs, Integrity Virtual Server Manager stops a VM that is already started, and then restarts it; if a machine is stopped, Integrity Virtual Server Manager starts it. Once a VM starts, the resources assigned to the VM are allocated for its use. The Restart and Start functions are similar except the Restart function first stops a VM that is already started, while the Start function does not (it leaves the started VM as is).
5. The Command Preview area shows the commands that Integrity VM will perform to restart the VMs. Click OK to perform the action. For information about possible reasons that a VM might not start, see “Troubleshooting VM or vPar problems” (page 138). Deleting VMs To delete a VM, select Delete→Virtual Machine... from the Integrity Virtual Server Manager menu bar. The Virtual Machine...
Some of the most common reasons for migrating VMs online include the need to: • Vacate the source VSP system for maintenance purposes without disrupting services • Perform a rolling upgrade of a VSP, moving its running guests to another VSP, upgrading the VSP, then moving the guests back • Populate a new VSP with one or more VMs already configured and tested on the source • Move VMs to take advantage of a particular resource or feature on the target VSP, without losing application availability • Ba
quickly. Configuration requirements for online migration are more elaborate than for offline migration. Some of the basic migration requirements include the following; for complete details, see the HP-UX vPars and Integrity VM Administrator Guide manual: • For online migration, the source and target VSPs must be running HP Integrity VM Version 4.1 or later.
Migration status and error notification The migration status of a VM — including the direction of migration, percentage completion per phase (for online migration only), and error messages — is displayed on the VM Properties General tab. The VSP Virtual Servers tab also indicates migration status (use this tab to monitor the migration of multiple VMs). For more information, see “VM or vPar properties general tab” (page 61) and “VSP Virtual Servers tab” (page 31).
Figure 62 Migrate Virtual Machine: Step 1 of 2 3. 4. 5. Specify the target VSP name, alias, or IP address. The target must be a valid VSP and must be accessible by the source VSP. If you intend to migrate a VM online, this VSP must be licensed and enabled for online migration. If you want the VM configuration removed from your source VSP after the migration completes, select the check box provided for that purpose. Make this selection if you never intend to migrate the VM back to this VSP.
Figure 63 Migrate Virtual Machine: Step 2 of 2 6. Inspect the commands. If they suit your needs and you want to go ahead with the migration, click Finish. If you want to tailor the commands to be used for migrating the selected VMs, you can enter the desired commands manually on the VSP.
Figure 64 Virtual Machine Suspend 3. The Command Preview area shows the commands that Integrity VM performs to suspend the VM. Click OK. The VM is suspended and the Virtual Servers tab is displayed. You can view the status as Sp in the OS column against the selected VM, as shown in Figure 65. Figure 65 Suspend status Resuming VMs A VM can be resumed only if it is in a suspended (SP) state. Resuming a VM saves time as it does not involve the actual shutdown and reboot of the OS.
1. 2. Select a VM in a suspended state. Select Tools→Resume Virtual Machine. The Resume Virtual Machine screen is displayed, as shown in Figure 66. Figure 66 Virtual Machine Resume page 3.

To create a vswitch, select Create→Virtual Switch from the Integrity Virtual Server Manager menu. This displays a page similar to that shown in Figure 69. Figure 69 Create Virtual Switch page The table on the screen shown in Figure 69 displays the following information: • LAN interface: Shows the physical LAN interface to which a vswitch can be attached. The “(none)” entry indicates that the vswitch is local, meaning that it not connected to a LAN interface.
With HP Integrity VM, AVIO requires a vswitch that has a physical network device as the backing device (local vswitches such as localnet are not supported). In addition, the physical NIC that backs the virtual switch must have an AVIO-compatible driver. For more information about AVIO requirements, see the HP Integrity Virtual Machines documentation available at http://www.hp.com/go/hpux-hpvm-docs. Create the virtual switch by performing the following steps: 1. 2. (Required) Enter a virtual switch name.

If you want to use the default parameters, leave the check box blank. 4. Click Add to List to add the selected DIOs to the vPar.
devices on HP-UX 11i v2 and HP-UX 11i v3 vPars. The attached devices configured using AVIO (avio_stor adapter), have the following benefits over attached devices configured with VIO (scsi adapter): 1. Allow sharing of tapes, changers, and burners among multiple vPars and VSPs 2. Support of USB 2.0 DVD burners 3.
NOTE: Any storage devices that you add are not functional on the vPar until the vPar is started or restarted. When you add a storage device to a started vPar, it might not appear on a Storage tab until the vPar is stopped or restarted. If you add the device to a stopped vPar, the tab displays the device immediately. • Add DIO to add DIOs to a VM or vPar. For more information, see “Adding DIOs” (page 109). • Replace DIO H/W path to replace the h/w path of a DIO owned by a guest, VM or vPar.

reboots a vPar that is already booted, while the Boot function does not (it leaves the booted vPar as it is). You can use the Reset function instead of the Boot function when you have several vPars that you want newly booted, some of which are already booted and some currently stopped. The Reset function resets all the vPars. However, if you do not want the already booted partitions rebooted, in other words, you just want the stopped partitions booted, use the Boot function instead.
Deleting network or storage devices For details about deleting network or storage devices for vPars, see “Deleting network or storage devices” (page 105). Deleting vPars Deleting a vPar removes all configuration files for the vPar and frees up any resources assigned to it, thereby the available resources can be assigned to other vPars. Deleting a vPar does not delete files and data residing on the virtual storage or backing storage that is assigned to the vPar.
Replacing DIO H/W path For details about replacing H/W paths, see “Replacing DIO H/W path” (page 109). Replacing DIO MAC address For details about replacing DIO MAC addresses, see “Replacing DIO MAC address” (page 110). Deleting DIOs For details about deleting DIOs, see “Deleting DIOs” (page 108).
7 Collecting and viewing utilization data Certain Integrity Virtual Server Manager views include utilization meters (bar graphs) that display current utilization data for a resource. For example, the VSP Virtual Servers tab includes several utilization meters for each vPar and VM listed, as shown in Figure 80. Using Integrity Virtual Server Manager with Matrix Operating Environment for HP-UX, you can click a meter to view a more detailed historical data report provided by HP Capacity Advisor.
Viewing utilization data Integrity Virtual Server Manager provides the following options for viewing utilization data. These assume the prerequisites discussed in “Enabling collection of utilization data” (page 119) have been met. • Utilization meters provided by Integrity Virtual Server Manager tabs. Table 16 lists the meters provided by Integrity Virtual Server Manager tabs. Utilization meters display current utilization data for the associated resource.

A Error messages, status indicators, and troubleshooting This appendix discusses error messages and troubleshooting related to Integrity Virtual Server Manager problems, and describes the status indicators that appear on some Integrity Virtual Server Manager screens and the error and status labels that might appear with utilization meters (bar graphs) displayed on certain Integrity Virtual Server Manager screens.
This command lists all the configuration parameters. Verify whether the enableNamespaceAuthorization parameter is set to TRUE. If it is set to TRUE, follow these steps: 1. To access WBEM Providers from HP Systems Insight Manager, run the following command: # cimauth -a -u -n root/cimv2/hpvm -R -W # cimconfig -s enableNamespaceAuthorization=true -p where, SIMUSER is the username created for SIM access. 2.
Status indicators In several actions and views, the status of a component is represented by an icon next to the component name or label. For example, the icon next to the name of a VM or a vPar shows whether the VM or vPar is up or down. A question mark (?) means no information is available. Table 17 explains the meaning of each status icon.
• No Comm. indicates that Integrity Virtual Server Manager is unable to communicate with the WBEM provider running on a VM or vPar. Hover the cursor over the meter to display an exception error message identifying the problem. A common reason for the No Comm. label to be displayed is a problem with trusted certificates.
are insufficient, missing or unavailable check box is selected on the Create Virtual Machines wizard Summary page, you can still have Integrity Virtual Server Manager create the VM. You will have to correct the conditions prior to starting the VM. • Failure starting a VM or a vPar The most likely cause for a VM or a vPar failing to start is missing, insufficient, or unavailable resources. Make sure the required resources are made available.
The response “HPVMProviderModule OK” indicates the VM Provider is running. Any other response indicates it is not running. For system and software requirements regarding the VM Provider, see “System and software requirements” (page 13). For installation instructions and information about providers that must be installed and running on VMs or vPars, see the HP-UX vPars and Integrity VM Administrator Guide manual.
