HP Integrity Virtual Machines Installation, Configuration, and Administration Version A.03.50

# # even if sub-paths to the specified restricted directory
# # contain mount points to other file systems.
# hpvmdevmgmt -a rdev:/some-directory:attr:RECURSIVE=DIR
This restricts the ability to later designate anything in or hierarchically below the specified
directory for use by a guest. Recursion can be specified as either limited to directories, files,
and devices in the same file system as the restricted directory (RECURSIVE=FS), or as
unlimited by the file system, applying to everything hierarchically below the restricted
directory (RECURSIVE=DIR).
The RECURSIVE attribute can be specified only for restricted directories and can be disabled or
removed entirely. Note the following:
# # Disable restricted directory recursion, but keep the
# # RECURSIVE attribute.
# hpvmdevmgmt -m rdev:/some-directory:attr:RECURSIVE=NONE
# # Disable restricted directory recursion by removing the
# # RECURSIVE attribute.
# hpvmdevmgmt -d rdev:/some-directory:attr:RECURSIVE
The Integrity VM device-management facility automatically makes two directories, /etc/ and
/stand, recursively restricted by file system when you run hpvmdevmgmt -I. This command
is always run when Integrity VM is started with /sbin/init.d./hpvm start. To inhibit the
automatic restriction of these directories, add one of the following lines to the /etc/
rc.config.d/hpvmconf file:
HPVMRESDIRELIST=""
HPVMRESDIRLIST=
To replace the default list of restricted directories, the HPVMRESDIRLIST parameter can be
specified as follows:
HPVMRESDIRLIST="RECURSIVE={DIR|FS}:/dir1[,...]"
HPVMRESDIRLIST=RECURSIVE={DIR|FS}:/dir1[,...]
If the device pathnames have changed for disk backing stores and have been assigned as guest
devices, run the hpvmdevmgmt -r report and repair function to determine the new pathnames
for those disks and have HPVM reassign them for you, . This command generates a shell script
that performs the reassignment using the hpvmdevmgmt -n command. For syntax and usage,
see the examples.
If the report and repair function determines that more than one device path can be selected to
replace an obsolete device path, you must manually edit the script to make the selection. The
report and repair script might also suggest that you remove certain device entries with which it
has found a problem from the device database. You must manually edit the script to enable all
such removals. If the report and repair function finds errors, it might write warning and
information messages to stderr. All repair-script output is written to stdout. If no errors are
found, you do not need to maually edit the repair script in order for it to run.
Only superusers can execute the hpvmdevmgmt command.
If you have the Serviceguard environment set up, you can use this command to add the VM Host
to the Serviceguard cluster environment. To establish a multiserver entry, enter the following
commands:
# hpvmdevmgmt -a server:hostname
# hpvmdevmgmt -m server:hostname:attr:SERVERADDR=ip-address
# hpvmdevmgmt -m server:hostname:attr:SERVERID=server-id
In this command sequence, you supply the IP address (ip-address) used by Serviceguard to
monitor the cluster. Also specify a server identifier (server-id) from 1 to 255. To delete a
multiserver entry, enter the following command:
# hpvmdevmgmt -d server:hostname
