HP XP P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Suite Software 7.6.1-00 CLI Reference Guide

NOTE:
• To change the information of a virtualization server that was not registered with vMA or Host Data
Collector, use the ModifyHost command.
• This command can be used for the following versions of virtualization servers:
- If using vMA: VMware ESX 4.x or VMware ESXi 4.x
- If using Host Data Collector: VMware ESX 4.x, VMware ESXi 4.x, or VMware ESXi 5.x
• The information collection method of a virtualization server registered with vMA can be switched
to using Host Data Collector. However, the management method cannot be switched from using
Host Data Collector to using vMA.
• Before you start working with Host Data Collector, make sure that it is set in the hostdatacol-
lectors.properties file, which contains the properties for linkage with Host Data Collector.
For details about setting up Host Data Collector, see the manual HP P9000 Command View Ad-
vanced Edition Suite Software Administrator Guide .
