HP Integrity Virtual Machines Manager 4.3 User Guide

Memory Required to Start VM: The amount of memory needed for the virtual machine to
boot.
◦
◦ Initial Target for Memory Size After Boot: The value to which Integrity VM tries to change
the virtual machine memory immediately after it boots.
◦ Minimum Memory Size: The lowest value to which the virtual machine can attempt to
dynamically decrease its memory while the OS is running.
◦ Maximum Memory Size: The highest value to which the virtual machine can attempt to
dynamically increase its memory while the OS is running.
◦ VM is Allowed to Control Memory Size: Indicates whether the Allow dynamic control of
memory size from the virtual machine is in effect. This control allows applications running
VM (for example, gWLM) to dynamically change the memory on the virtual machine.
◦ AMR is enabled: Indicates whether automatic memory reallocation (AMR) for a virtual
machine is enabled or not. You can enable AMR only on VMs on which dynamic memory
control is enabled.
External Manager Information
• gWLM Policy: If the VM Host is being managed by gWLM and a policy has been assigned
to the virtual machine, the External Manager gWLM field displays the name of the gWLM
policy. If the VM Host is not managed by gWLM or if a policy has not been assigned to the
virtual machine, the gWLM field displays (none). With Matrix Operating Environment for
HP-UX, if the virtual machine is managed by gWLM, the gWLM policy name is a hyperlink
to gWLM. Under HP SMH, if virtual machines are being managed by gWLM, the gWLM
policy name is text only (you cannot modify gWLM policies from HP SMH). In either case
(using VM Manager with HP Matrix Operating Environment or HP SMH), if the virtual machine
is not being managed by gWLM, this field displays (none).
• Serviceguard Package: If the virtual machine is being managed by HP Serviceguard, the virtual
machine package name is listed here. If the virtual machine is not being managed by HP
Serviceguard, this field displays (none).
VM Utilization Information
• VM Utilization Information: Displays resource utilization statistics for a virtual machine. The
utilization information is a 5-minute average that is calculated and updated on 5-minute
boundaries. If the utilization cannot be displayed, the utilization meter (bar graph) is dimmed
and a label indicates the probable cause. For a description of meter labels, see “Utilization
meter status/error information” (page 117). When VM Manager runs with Matrix Operating
Environment for HP-UX, the utilization meters link to HP Capacity Advisor, which records and
displays utilization data. Click a meter to view the virtual machine utilization history for virtual
CPUs, memory, disk I/O, or network I/O; this feature is not provided when using VM Manager
from HP SMH. For an example utilization history screen and more information about collecting
and viewing utilization data, see Chapter 7 (page 105).
VM Authorization Information
• Authorized Administrators, Authorized Administrative Groups, Authorized Operators, Authorized
Operator Groups: These fields indicate which users and groups have administrator or operator
authority.
