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

NOTE: You may receive a warning message during the guest installation process indicating
that the AVIO bundles are not installed. The installation will continue and complete successfully.
The AVIO bundles are optional and should install by default. If they did not, and you want to
install them with the Integrity VM bundle T2767AC, go to the HP-UX 11i v2 0712 media and
look for the following bundles to install on the HP-UX guest, GuestAVIOStor and GuestAvioLan.
After you install the AVIO bundles, upgrade your guest configurations to use AVIO.
4.2 Installing HP-UX Guest Management Software
After you install the HP-UX operating system on the virtual machine, install the Integrity VM
guest management software. The guest management software includes:
• Operating system patches to optimize virtual machine operation
• Integrity VM management tools, including hpvmcollect and hpvminfo
• The VM Provider, which allows you to use the VM Manager to manage the guest.
To install guest management software on an HP-UX guest, select the appropriate version of
HP-UX:
• 11iv2 indicates HP-UX 11.23.
For HP-UX 11.23 guests, the guest depot file is:
/opt/hpvm/guest-images/hpux/11iv2/hpvm_guest_depot.11iv2.sd
• 11iv3 indicates HP-UX 11.31.
For HP-UX 11.31 guests, the guest depot file is:
/opt/hpvm/guest-images/hpux/11iv3/hpvm_guest_depot.11iv3.sd
Complete instructions for installing the guest management software are in the README.txt file
in /opt/hpvm/guest-images/hpux directory.
HP-UX guests reboot as part of the guest management software installation process.
4.3 Troubleshooting HP-UX Guest Creation
The following section describes a problem that might occur during HP-UX guest installation.
4.3.1 The guest hangs in the EFI shell
The guest hangs in the EFI when you are starting the guest and you get the following message:
Shell> \efi\hpux\hpux
'\efi\hpux\hpux' not found
Exit status code: Invalid Parameter
The EFI boot parameters were probably not set up correctly during guest operating system
installation. Choose the correct EFI partition from which to boot. For example:
Shell> fs3:
fs3:\> hpux
Installation continues from the specified partition.
