Troubleshooting Installation Problems

If the installation verification fails, report the problem using the procedures described in Appendix B.

Problem:

One or more of the following messages are displayed:

could not write monParams: Device is busy

hpvmnet * already exists

/sbin/init.hpvm start ran without running /sbin/init.d/hpvmstop

Solution:

You can ignore these messages.

Problem:

The Integrity VM log file /var/opt/hpvm/common/hpvm_mon_log is too small.

Solution:

This log file is limited to 1024 KB in size. When the log file grows larger than this, it is copied to a new file (hpvm_mon_log.$time), and an empty one is created for the new log. To allow this log file to grow larger than 1024 KB, include the following line in the /etc/rc.config.d/hpvmconf file:

VMMSIZE=$size

The value of $size is the amount in KB (kilobytes). For example, VMMSIZE=10420 sets the maximum size of the monitor log to 10420 KB. After you make this change to the hpvmconf file, enter the following command:

# kill -HUP '/var/run/hpvmmonlogd.pid'
