and got the following error
hpvmmodify: WARNING (artemis): Disk or disk partition: /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0 has a size of zero, and may not show up in or be usable by the guest when booted.
hpvmmodify: ERROR (artemis): Duplicate backing device '/dev/rdsk/c0t0d0'.

Re: assigning dvd to a virtual server
I also suggest you make a .iso if it's a DVD you plan on presenting often, you'll have much better read performance.

Re: assigning dvd to a virtual server
With the dvd mounted:
dd if=/dvd,of=/tmp/iso
Add block size and count as needed.
Also you can merely remove presentation of the DVD to the other virtual machine.

Re: assigning dvd to a virtual server
The first line is just a warning - I assume you have already added this device to the HPVM.
According to the manual (and the post above this) you should create a NULL device and INsert the media using the vMP INsert command.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: assigning dvd to a virtual server
HPVM guest artemis configuration problems:
Warning 1 on item /dvd: '/dvd' backing device does not exist.
These problems may prevent HPVM guest artemis from starting.
hpvmmodify: The modification process is continuing.
when i checked with hpvmstatus -P artemis i saw:
dvd scsi 0 1 0 7 0 null /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0..
i'm assuming i can now do a mount command on Artemis to used the dvd..
