[Trng]

Hi Team,

i have an HP VM Host  having 5  Hpvmguest runing on it ...i have deleted one of the vm guest  ..now i have 4 vmguest on it ..my question is how to rearrange  the VM Number  to  1,23,4 (right now its showing 1,3,4,5 ) without any impact .

$ sudo hpvmstatus

I don't think this can be done.  I believe the VM # is set at the time of creation and cannot be changed.
