HP Integrity Virtual Machines 4.2: Installation, Configuration, and Administration

# hpvmdevtranslate -a /var/opt/hpvm/common/hpvm_mgmtdb_pre1131
18. Edit the script, /var/opt/hpvm/common/hpvm_dev_convert, taking note of ERROR
lines and commenting out the exit line that prevents the running of the script.
19. Continue with the remaining 11i v3 Integrity VM Host configuration until the host is
functionally equivalent to the former 11i v2 Integrity VM Host.
If you choose the update path, follow these steps:
1. Create a recovery image.
2. Verify that all current guests that run on 11i v2 can boot and run successfully. Guests that
cannot boot on 11i v2 cannot be expected to boot after the update to 11i v3.
3. After verifying the guests, back up all relevant configuration data for each guest for a potential
return to 11i v2.
4. Install the latest Update-UX bundle from the OE media.
5. Update the OS/OE from the HP-UX 11i v3 OE media using the update-ux command. For
example:
# swinstall -s /dev/dvd Update-Ux
update-ux -s /dev/dvd/HPUX11i-VSE-OE T2767CC
NOTE: There is a new update-ux option, –p, which previews and update task by running
the session through the analysis phase first.
If you are updating from the VSE-OE depot, specify the following:
# swinstall -s my.server.foo.com:/OEdepot/path Update-UX
update-ux -s my.server.foo.com:/OEdepot/path HPUX11i-VSE-OE T2767CC
6. Remove any blocking layered products that might block the Integrity VM installation. See
Section 2.1.2 (page 28) for a list products.
7. Remove layered products that might cause problems or that require a new 11i v3 compatible
version after the HP-UX 11i v3 update.
8. Determine the order of installation of layered products, including Integrity VM V4.2
(T2767CC), so that all dependencies are met. For example, if VERITAS is used to provide
backing storage for guests, install it before Integrity VM.
9. Install Integrity VM Version 4.2 to the 11i v3 VM Host.
10. Update non-OE applications from the Application media using the swinstall command.
For example, if you plan to install vmmgr, switch to the AR disk and specify the following:
# swinstall -s my.server.foo.com:/Ardepot/path VMMGR
11. Create the recovery image.
2.3.6 Verifying Guests after Installing Layered Products
Follow these steps after installing layered products:
1. Use the hpvmupgrade utility to see whether any guests have configuration problems.
2. Start and stop each guest, one at a time, and make sure that they boot to their OS.
3. Use the guest troubleshooting section, Chapter 12 (page 209), to resolve guest booting
problems.
4. Upgrade each guest with the new guest kit.
5. If the guest OS is no longer supported, upgrade the guest OS.
