Introduction
This paper
describes
the procedure to install and configure HP Integrity Virtual Machine for HP
Systems Insight Manager on Integrity Machi
ne. Installation of Integrity VM can be carried out in
HPUX 11.23 or later operating environment. The virtual machine environment consists of:

VM Host

Virtual Machines (also known as Guest)
The VM Host virtualizes the CPU, Memory
,
and any
input/output dev
ices, enabling you to allocate
resour
c
es.
T
he Virtual Ma
c
hines are
an
abstra
c
tion of physical machines. They are f
u
lly loaded,
operational systems,
c
omplete with operating systems, management utilities, appli
c
ations and
network, running in a virtual enviro
nment.
HP SIM can help manage HP Integrity Virtual Machines and associate the Virtual Machines with the
VM Host.
Note:
On the HP Integrity Machine,
prior to installing the operating system
,
make
sure the USB DVD player is connected to USB01. This
enables
the drivers to
be installed correctly and identify the USB DVD player.
