HP-UX vPars and Integrity VM V6.3 Administrator Guide

[Remote Console]
Remote Console Ip Address: 16 .92.81.68
Remote Console Net Mask: 255.255.252.0
When users connect to the virtual iLO Remote Console IP address, they must log in using the
standard telnet or ssh system authentication. After authenticating, the users receive immediate
access to the guest console:
# ssh -l guest1admin 16.92.81.68
Password:
vMP MAIN MENU
CO: Console
CM: Command Menu
CL: Console Log
SL: Show Event Logs
VM: Virtual Machine Menu
HE: Main Help Menu
X: Exit Connection
[guest1] vMP>
The username used to access and log into the virtual iLO Remote Console must have guest
administrator or operator privileges. The following example creates a guest administrator name
guest1admin for the guest guest1. The hpvmmodify -u option is used to grant the guest
administrator privilege:
# useradd -d /var/opt/hpvm/guests/guest1 -c 'guest1 console' guest1admin
# passwd guest1admin
# hpvmmodify -P guest1 -u guest1admin:admin
# hpvmmodify –P pqsvm53 –K xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx –L xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
# telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
For more information about guest administrators and operators, see Section 13.10 (page 225).
When a guest is migrated from one to another VSP using OVMM, the Integrity VM virtual iLO
Remote Console is also migrated to the new VSP. Before migration, the virtual iLO Remote Console
process is running on only the source VSP. After migration, the virtual iLO Remote Console process
is stopped on the source VSP. Any client that was connected to that virtual iLO Remote Console is
disconnected. A new virtual iLO Remote Console process is started on the target VSP. New client
connections to the virtual iLO Remote Console IP address are now sent to the virtual iLO Remote
Console process on the new VSP.
13.12.2 Integrity VM virtual iLO Remote Console limitations
The following are the virtual iLO Remote Console features:
• By default, only SSH is supported.
To add telnet support for virtual iLO Remote Console, you must install two additional HP-UX
enhancement patches, one for telnetd and one for the login (/usr/bin/login) command.
If you try to telnet to the virtual iLO Remote Console without these patches, an error message
is sent to the telnet client, and the connection is closed.
Install the following patches on the VSP:
◦ PHCO_41595
◦ PHNE_41452
• The SSH server host keys of the virtual iLO Remote Console can change.
When an SSH client connects to an SSH server, the client downloads the host keys of the
server and retains a local copy (usually in a file such as ~/.ssh/known_hosts). On
subsequent connections, the SSH client verifies that the host key sent by the server matches
the local copy. If the keys do not match, the SSH client prints an error message.
