HP Integrity Virtual Machines 4.2.5: Release Notes

4.3.2.5 Before Installing the SUSE Linux Guest

You must install the tog-pegasus RPM kit prior to installing the SUSE Linux RPM guest; however,

the SUSE Linux installation media does not contain the tog-pegasus RPM kit. This RPM kit is available

in the “HP Integrity Essentials Foundation Pack for Linux” (also known as HPIEFL for Linux).

The SUSE Linux RPM guest kit is actually two parts, a guest kit and a provider kit. The Hpvm.*.rpm

kit contains:

• Tuning scripts

• hpvminfo

• hpvmcollect

• Guest library

The Hpvmprovider.*.rpm kit contains the VMprovider and related files. This RPM requires that both

the hpvm and tog-pegasus kits must be installed.
