HP Matrix Operating Environment 7.2 Update 1 Infrastructure Orchestration User Guide

To edit a virtual server
1. Open the infrastructure orchestration console, self service portal, or organization administrator
portal.
2. Select the Services or My Services tab.
3. Select a service and click Details or View Details.
4. From the Actions or Server Actions list, select Edit virtual servers.
5. Expand the tree and select the virtual machine you want to edit.
6. Increase or decrease the number of processors by using the arrows in the Number of Processors
field, up to the Maximum (shown in red).
The initial and maximum values are specified on the infrastructure orchestration designer
Configure Server Group Config tab, in Processors Per Server.
7. Enter a new value in the Memory Size field, up to the Maximum (shown in red).
The initial and maximum values are specified on the infrastructure orchestration designer
Configure Server Group Config tab, in Memory Size.
The Cost per Processor and Cost per Unit of Memory are also displayed, and reflect the values
entered on the Configure Server Group Config tab.
The Total Reconfiguration Cost shows the total changed cost of the increased or decreased
number of processors or amount of memory, based on the per unit cost specified on the
Configure Server Group Config tab.
During this operation, infrastructure orchestration:
• Validates the request
• Obtains approval
• Sends an edit logical server request to Matrix OE logical server management with the
corresponding parameters for each of the request’s target servers
• Updates the IO service metadata based on the request execution results
NOTE: When editing the memory and processor information for a running virtual server, the
Matrix OE software will force a shutdown of the virtual server (and this non-graceful shutdown will
result in one or more reboots). When the virtual server is restarted it will have the new memory
and processor configuration. If the virtual server is not running, the values can be edited and the
virtual server will remain stopped.
Managing floating IP addresses
From the tab in infrastructure orchestration console, you can perform the following:
• Create a new floating IP address and associate it with a cloud logical server.
• Move an existing floating IP address from one cloud logical server to another.
• Remove a floating IP address from a cloud logical server and release its allocation.
The lifecycle of a floating IP address is independent from the server to which it is added, allowing
it to be moved between servers. A floating IP address should be removed explicitly when it is no
longer needed.
NOTE: Floating IP address operations can be performed only on logical servers deployed to a
cloud provider.
Create, move, or remove a floating IP address
1. From the tab in infrastructure orchestration console, select the service you want to modify.
2. Double-click the service, click Details, or click the Service layout preview graphic.
