HP Integrity Virtual Machines Manager 4.1 Software: User Guide

unchecked, it remains unchecked when you return (you continue to see the simple view).
The check box state on the VM Host Storage tab does not affect the state of the same check
box on the VM Properties Storage tab. For example, selecting the check box on the VM
Host Storage tab does not automatically affect the check box and view of the VM
Properties Storage tab.
3
Displays this window in a format suitable for printing.
4
Updates the data displayed on this page. In general, VM Manager tabbed view screens
are refreshed automatically at regular intervals, and VM Manager screens that display
configuration data are updated instantaneously when you use VM Manager to change
the related configuration parameters. However, when changes to the virtual machine I/O
configuration are made using tools other than VM Manager (such as adding or removing
I/O devices by using the VM Host command line), the updated configuration data is not
shown until the screen is refreshed.
5
Allows you to perform an action on the virtual machine or I/O device. Select the box, then
select an action from one of the menus available on the VM Manager menu bar.
6
Clicking the Focus link limits the display to only those storage devices associated with
the selected object (in this instance, the devices associated with virtual machine vse02v1)
and the objects directly connected to it. All other devices are not displayed. To return to
the original view, click the Show All link visible beneath the VM Manager menu bar on
the focused page.
The Show physical host bus adapters check box is disabled (dimmed) in the focussed
view; you cannot change the Show physical host bus adapters state until you return
to the original (unfocussed) view. The simplicity or complexity of the focussed view with
respect to host bus adapters and so forth is determined by the check box selection at the
time that you selected the focus link.
7
Displays detailed information about the virtual machine by taking you to the VM
Properties General tab.
8
Displays the type of storage device interface and device, such as emulated SCSI Disk
(labeled SCSI Disk, as in this instance) or Accelerated Virtual Input/Output disk (labeled
AVIO Disk).
9
The meter (bar graph) displays storage I/O throughput data, if available. The data is a
5-minute average that is calculated and updated on 5-minute boundaries. If the data cannot
be displayed, the meter is dimmed (as in the meter underneath this one) and a label
indicates the probable cause. For a description of meter labels, see “Utilization meter
status/error information” (page 127).
Using VM Manager with Insight Dynamics - VSE for Integrity, you can click a meter to
view a snapshot of Capacity Advisor historical data for storage I/O; this feature is not
provided when using VM Manager from HP SMH.
For more information about using VM Manager to collect and view utilization data, see
Chapter 7 (page 111).

The green horizontal line indicates by color coding that matching components are related.
This particular line links the virtual storage component to its corresponding physical
storage component. The green vertical line to the right of the screen also indicates by color
coding that matching components are related. This line links two representations of the
storage device, one with the agile address and the other with the legacy address. The line
indicates that they are two different representations of the same physical device. Multiple
representations are displayed only if the Show physical host bus adapters check box
is selected.
