VSP Information
• VSP name: The hostname of the VSP system (as well as the nPartition name and link to Partition
Manager for this nPartition, if the VSP system is contained within an nPartition).
• Resource inventory.
Physical CPU Core Count: The number of processors.◦
◦ Physical CPU Core Speed: The speed of processors.
◦ Physical Memory: The amount of memory.
◦ Online Migration: Indicates whether the VSP is enabled and licensed to support online
migration of VMs. The second column in the following table shows what the status field
displays, based on the state of the VSP listed in the first column:

Host not licensedEnabled and unlicensed
The licensing is included with a bundle that must be installed on the VSP. For more
information about enabling and licensing the VSP, see the HP-UX vPars and Integrity VM
Administrator Guide manual.
VM and vPar Information
• Number of defined VMs or vPars: The number of defined VMs or vPars.
• Number of active VMs or vPars: The number of VMs or vPars currently booted, and the number
of VM or vPar packages running on the local VSP (local) as well as the number that are hosted
remotely using HP Serviceguard.
• External Managers: Indicates if the VMs or vPars are being managed by gWLM or HP
Serviceguard. With Matrix Operating Environment, if VMs or vPars are managed by gWLM,
the field provides a hyperlink to gWLM. Under HP SMH, if VMs are being managed by gWLM,
the field identifies the Central Management Server (CMS) on which gWLM is running and
provides a hyperlink to the Systems Insight Manager/Matrix Operating Environment login
screen (you cannot modify gWLM policies from HP SMH). In either case (using Integrity Virtual
Server Manager with HP Matrix Operating Environment or HP SMH), if the VMs or vPars are
not being managed by gWLM or HP Serviceguard, this field displays (none).
VSP Resource Utilization
The utilization data is a 5-minute average that is calculated and updated on 5-minute boundaries.
If the data cannot be displayed, the utilization meter (bar graph) is dimmed and a label indicates
the probable cause. For a description of meter labels, see “Utilization meter status/error information”
(page 137).
Using Integrity Virtual Server Manager with Matrix Operating Environment, you can click a meter
to view a snapshot of Capacity Advisor historical data. This feature is not provided when using
Integrity Virtual Server Manager from HP SMH.
