HP Integrity Virtual Server Manager 6.3 User Guide

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.
To create or modify the gWLM policy for this VM, use the Policy menu (available when using
Integrity Virtual Server Manager with Matrix Operating Environment for HP-UX).
• Virtual Machine Memory to modify the amount of memory for a selected VM. If the VSP has
Integrity VM 3.0 or later installed and the OS type for the VM supports dynamic memory, the
dynamic memory parameters are shown, and you can modify them. Changes to memory take
effect when the VM is restarted.
NOTE: An up-to-date version of the WBEM Utilization Provider (UP) must be installed on the
VM to enable HP Capacity Advisor and the memory utilization meters in Integrity Virtual Server
Manager and Integrity VM to reflect the dynamic change in memory. For information about
verifying and installing software on VMs, see “System and software requirements” (page 13)
and the HP Integrity Virtual Machines documentation.
• Virtual Machine vCPU Count to modify the number of virtual CPUs for a selected VM or CPUs
for a selected vPar. If supported by the version of Integrity VM running on the VSP, you can
modify the minimum and maximum number of vCPUs to be allotted to the VM or CPUs to the
vPar. Changes take effect when the VM or vPar is restarted.
• Virtual Machine VLAN Settings to modify the VLAN associated with the VM or vPar.
• Add/Modify Virtual iLO Remote Console to modify the IP Address and Net mask details of
virtual iLO remote console of a VM or vPar. If the VM or vPar does not have a virtual iLO
associated with it, you can create the virtual iLO remote console from the Add/Modify Virtual
iLO Remote Console screen.
• Hardware Auto Start for VM to specify whether the VM should start automatically when Integrity
VM is started or whether the VM will be started manually.
• Add DIO to add DIOs to a guest VM or vPar.
• Replace DIO H/W path to replace the h/w path of a DIO owned by a guest VM or vPar.
• Replace DIO MAC address to replace the MAC address of DIOs owned by a guest VM or
vPar.
• WBEM Credentials to set and change WBEM credentials for VMs or vPars.
• Add Storage Devices to add storage devices for VMs or vPars.
