Use the Windows Remote Desktop to manage the Windows guest:
Log in as Administrator and configure Windows TCP/IP using the same
networking information supplied earlier at the SAC> prompt. Install SNMP from
the Windows Management and Monitoring Tools and configure it. SNMP is required
for the HP Systems Insight Manager (SIM), which provides the Virtual Server
Environment (VSE).
The HP Integrity Support Pack for Windows provides the components required
for managing the Windows guest using VSE, including:
Basic Windows updates for Integrity VM

To install the SSM media, you must first insert it into the virtual
DVD. If the virtual DVD is mapped to the physical DVD, then you will need
to physically insert the SSM media disk into the physical DVD drive on the
VM Host.
If your virtual DVD is mapped to an ISO file (for example, the Windows
installation media), you must virtually eject the current media and virtually
insert the SSM. To do this, modify the virtual DVD so that it now maps to
the ISO file containing the SSM.
For example, the following hpvmstatus command displays
the virtual DVD on the Windows guest vmwin0:
# hpvmstatus -P vmwin0 |grep scsi
disk scsi 0 0 0 0 0 file /hpvm/VHD/vmwin0/vhd0
dvd scsi 0 0 0 1 0 file /ISO/MS_Ent_Ed_wSP1.iso |
To change the virtual DVD, you must use the virtual bus, device, and
target values for the existing DVD with the hpvmmodify command.
For example, in the hpvmstatus example, the virtual bus,
device, and target are 0, 0, and 1, respectively. The corresponding hpvmmodify command
is:
# hpvmmodify -P vmwin0 -m dvd:scsi:0,0,1:file:/ISO/SmartSetup.iso |
Now that the SSM is in the virtual DVD, it will appear in the Windows
Explorer display that corresponds to My Computer.
From the Explorer window, open the DVD and then open the start.html file
there. This file has infomration to guide you through installation of SSM.
Consult the Smart Setup Guide for more details.
After install the Smart Setup, install the components of HP's Smart
Update media. This media is available from HP. Insert the Smart Update media
into the virtual DVD as described for SSM. You initiate the Smart Update
installation the same way you initiated SSM. Open the virtual DVD, then open
the start.html file. Install OS and Security components
and other components of Smart Update that apply to your Windows system deployment
To enable the Virtual Server Environment (VSE), modify the Windows Firewall
settings, as follows:
As the adminstrator of the Windows guest, open the Windows
Firewall utility from the Control Panel and select the Exceptions tab:
Create an opening in the firewall for the VSE providers. Select Add
Port… Set the name to wbem-https.
Set the port number to 5989, and select
TCP. For example:
You can now monitor and manage the Windows guest using VM Manager and
SMH. For more information, see the Getting Started with VM Manager manual.
To shut down a Windows guest, use the Windows system management procedures.
The Integrity VM commands for stopping guests do not shut down the Windows
software properly and can lead to problems when the Windows guest is rebooted.
