Using Ignite-UX with Integrity VM
# cp –p /opt/ignite/data/examples/B.11.23.archives.cfg \
/scratch/staging/vm.cfg
You’ll need to customize the configuration file for your archive. Two modifications of the (is_ia64) section are
necessary. First, change the archive_path so that it reflects the path of the operating system archive file. For example, in
the vm.cfg file, change:
archive_path = "data/B.11.23_archive_IA.gz"
to:
archive_path = "./vm.gz"
Then replace all of the impacts entries in the init sw_sel stanza with those from those from the impacts.txt file
(created above).
You can remove the (is_hppa) section from the configuration file.
If your golden image has the HPVM-Guest bundle installed, then you’ll want to make sure the dynamic memory device driver
is configured correctly. To achieve this, add the following line after the init sw_sel stanza:
set_kernel += "module hpvmdynmem loaded"
For our example, the section would then read as follows:
(is_ia64) {
init sw_sel "B.11.23 client archive IA" {
description = "B.11.23 client archive IA"
sw_source = "hp client archives"
sw_category = "HPUXEnvironments"
archive_type = gzip tar
archive_path = "./vm.gz"
impacts = "/" 241Kb
impacts = "/cfs" 1Kb
impacts = "/dev" 13Kb
impacts = "/etc" 82004Kb
impacts = "/home" 13369Kb
impacts = "/stand" 52187Kb
impacts = "/usr" 2396952Kb
impacts = "/var" 1603493Kb
} = TRUE
}
set_kernel += "module hpvmdynmem loaded"
Creating a copy of the LIF volume
The ISO image must contain a LIF volume. Execute the following to create it:
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_medialif -a -r B.11.23 \
-f /opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.23/config \
-f /scratch/staging/vm.cfg \
-l /scratch/stging/vm.lifimage
Note the specification of two configuration files with the –f option. These are concatenated together for use by
make_medialif.
