virtual machine or
virtual partition
console
The user-mode application that provides console emulation for virtual machine or virtual partition.
Each instance of the VM or vPar console is one console session for its associated VM or vPar.
virtual network A LAN that is shared by the VMs or vPars running on the same VSP or in the same Serviceguard
cluster.
virtual partition A vPar is a software partition of a hard partition that contains an instance of HP-UX. Though a
hard partition can contain multiple vPars, a vPar cannot span a hard partition boundary
virtual switch See vswitch.
VLAN Virtual LAN. Defines logical connectivity instead of the physical connectivity defined by a LAN.
A VLAN provides a way to partition a LAN logically such that the broadcast domain for a VLAN
is limited to the nodes and switches that are members of the VLAN.
VM See virtual machine.
VM Provider The WBEM services provider for VSP and guest configuration data. The VM Provider allows
Integrity Virtual Server Manager to have visibility to VSP and guest resources. For Integrity Virtual
Server Manager VSP views, the provider gives information about the VSP and its guests. For
Integrity Virtual Server Manager virtual machine or virtual partition views, the provider gives
information about a particular VM or vPar and the identity of its VSP.
VSP A server running software such as HP Integrity VM, VMware ESX, VMware ESXi, or Microsoft
Hyper-V, that provides multiple VMs or vPars, each running its own instance of an operating
system.
vswitch Virtual switch. Refers to both a dynamically loadable kernel module (DLKM) and a user-mode
component implementing a virtual network switch. The virtualized network interface cards (NICs)
for guest machines are attached to the virtual switches. By associating the vswitch with a physical
working LAN on the VSP, you provide the guest with the capability of communicating outside the
localnet.
WBEM Web-Based Enterprise Management. A set of web-based information services standards developed
by the Distributed Management Task Force, Inc. A WBEM provider offers access to a resource.
WBEM clients send requests to providers to get information about, and access to, the registered
resources.
