The Integrity VM product also contains guest software that you can install
on a virtual machine after you have installed its HP-UX operating system.
Installing this depot improves the performance of the guest's operating system
and provides the hpvminfo and hpvmcollect commands
to guest administrators. After you install Integrity VM, the media is in the
form of an SD (Software Distributor) distribution tape file located in /opt/hpvm/guest-images/hpux/hpvm_guest_depot.sd.
This file can be used to create a general-purpose SD depot on the system you
specify. For example, to create the guest depot on myhost.corporate.com:/your/depot,
enter the following commands:
On the VM Host, create the general-purpose depot:
# swcopy -s /opt/hpvm/guest-images/hpux/hpvm_guest_depot.sd \* /
> @myhost.corporate.com:/your/depot |
Verify that the software depot has been copied correctly:
# swverify -d \* @@myhost.corporate.com:/your/depot |
On the VM Host, register the new depot on depot-host:
# swreg -l depot /your/depot |
On the guest, install the HPVM-Guest bundle from the new depot:
# swinstall -s /your/depot |
In addition to the HPVM-Guest bundle, you may also choose to install
the VMProvider bundle on the guest. This bundle, which is included in the
Integrity VM depot, enables guest management using vmmgr,
a GUI-based component of the Virtual Server Environment (VSE).
Be sure to check the product release notes for any software updates
that you should also install on your guests.
