HP Integrity Virtual Machines Release Notes

3.4 Do Not Create Golden Images of the VM Host for Guest Installation
Do not use the VM Host to create golden images to be used for guest OS installations using
Ignite-UX.
An Integrity system may be used to create a golden image suitable for OS installation on a virtual
machine, provided it has all of the VM Host software completely removed. To do so, remove
both the Integrity VM bundle (T2767AC) and the VMKernelSW bundle:
# swremove -x autoreboot=true T2767AC VMKernelSW
Before using the system to create a golden image, verify that neither of these bundles are installed.
That is, errors should result when querying the system with swlist:
# swlist T2767AC VMKernelSW
# Initializing...
# Contacting target "foo"...
ERROR: Software "T2767AC" was not found on host "foo:/".
ERROR: Software "VMKernelSW" was not found on host "foo:/".
For more information about using Ignite-UX golden images, refer to the Ignite-UX Administration
Guide.
