Integrity VM Command Changes

The hpvminfo command has been enhanced to print information that is accessible through the public APIs.

The hpvmnet command now displays the adapter type for each port defined on the vswitch and provides the new option -A, which displays the AVIO port specific statistics. For example, if you have a guest with AVIO port, you can use the hpvmnet command as follows:

# hpvmnet -S myswitch -p 11 -A  
Vswitch Name            :  myswitch
Max Number of Ports     :  100
Port Number             :  11
  Port State            :  Active
  Active VM             :  avio_vm
  Untagged VlanId       :  none
  Reserved VMs          :  avio_vm
  Adaptor               :  avio_lan
    Inbound Octets                      : 32714
    Inbound Unicast Pkts (wire)         : 197
    Inbound Unicast Pkts (local)        : 0
    Inbound Non-Unicast Pkts (wire)     : 0
    Inbound Non-Unicast Pkts (local)    : 0
    Inbound Discards                    : 0
    Outbound Octets                     : 19580
    Outbound Unicast Pkts (wire)        : 241
    Outbound Unicast Pkts (local)       : 0
    Outbound Non-Unicast Pkts           : 11
    Outbound Discards                   : 0

There is no distinction between “Outbound Non-Unicast Pkts” sent locally or on the wire, because all outbound non-unicast packets are always sent to both the other local interfaces and also to the wire.

To clear the AVIO statistics, use the -Z command option.

The hpvmcreate, hpvmclone, and hpvmmodify commands have been changed to support the addition, modification, and deletion of AVIO LAN and storage devices.

The hpvmstatus command now displays the new AVIO adapter types.

The hpvmresources manpage, which describes the syntax for specifying storage and network devices when creating or modifying a guest, has been updated to include a description of the avio_lan and avio_stor options.
