When you upgrade Integrity VM from an earlier version, you should:
Shut down all running guests (using the hpvmstop command). If you do not stop the guests, they are stopped as part of the Integrity VM installation procedure. If they are set to autoboot, guests are restarted when Integrity VM starts.
Locate and install the new version of Integrity VM.
Install new versions of the VMMigrate and VMProvider bundles.
Reboot the VM Host system.
Existing guest configuration information, operating system software, and application data are not affected when you upgrade Integrity VM. However, when you upgrade Integrity VM, you should reinstall the guest management software that is provided with Integrity VM. This operation requires you to reboot the guest. For more information, refer to Section : “Installing the Guest Management Software”.
If you have installed the evaluation version of Integrity VM (software bundle T2801AA), remove the evaluation software before installing the Integrity VM product. (See Section : “Removing Integrity VM”.)
