Using the Modify menu
The VM Manager Modify menu allows you to perform actions on a selected virtual machine. The
options displayed when you select the Modify menu using VM Manager from HP Matrix Operating
Environment are shown in Figure 46. The options are available only when you are in a VM
Properties view or in a view in which you have selected a virtual machine, such as on the VM Host
Virtual Machines tab. You can only modify one virtual machine at a time.
If the virtual machine being modified is an HP Serviceguard package, you must make the same
modifications to the virtual machine on the other VM Hosts in the cluster.
NOTE: When you use VM Manager from HP SMH, this menu includes an additional option that
allows you to modify WBEM credentials. This option can be available from any VM Manager
view.
Figure 46 VM Manager Modify menu
Table 8 describes the Modify menu options. More information about the various modification
options is provided in “Modifying virtual machines” (page 84). More detailed information is
provided by the VM Manager help and the HP Integrity Virtual Machines Installation, Configuration,
and Administration manual.
