Working with HP VM

root's picture

Recently I had to connect to some virtual HP and since I did not know nothing about this environment, I had to dig a little in order to get some results. Well, I have learn nothing significant but I am sharing it with you anyway :)

How to list your virtual machines:

gzhvm01:/#hpvmstatus
[Virtual Machines]
Virtual Machine Name VM #  OS Type State     #VCPUs #Devs #Nets Memory  Rmt Host
==================== ===== ======= ========= ====== ===== ===== ======= ========
gzhpvm1                  1 HPUX    On (OS)        1     2     4    2 GB        -
rest                     2 HPUX    On (OS)        1     2     4 1792 MB        -

How to connect to the console of a virtual machine:

suphvm01:/#hpvmconsole -P protoa1


   vMP MAIN MENU

         CO: Console
         CM: Command Menu
         CL: Console Log
         SL: Show Event Logs
         VM: Virtual Machine Menu
         HE: Main Help Menu
          X: Exit Connection

[protoa1] vMP> CO



        (Use Ctrl-B to return to vMP main menu.)
                GZHPVM1 - Test Machine
Console Login:

Note the commands displayed on the Main Menu, they are very useful and pretty understandable.
Enjoy :)

Thou shalt not steal!

If you want to use this information on your own website, please remember: by doing copy/paste entirely it is always stealing and you should be ashamed of yourself! Have at least the decency to create your own text and comments and run the commands on your own servers and provide your output, not what I did!

Or at least link back to this website.
