The Integrity VM commands for stopping virtual machines do not take into account the requirements of applications and utilities running on the guest. This can cause problems when guests are started again later.
You can monitor and manage the Linux guest using VM Manager and SMH. For more information, see the HP Virtual Machines Manager Getting Started Guide.
