HPVM guest dynamic memory managment software
Hello Expert,
I just instaled the HPGUES Memory managment software & run the below commands
# mknod /dev/hpvmdynmem c 171 0
# ll /dev/hpvmdynmem
crw-r--r-- 1 root sys 171 0x000000 Jul 14 09:16 /dev/hpvmdynmem
# kcmodule hpvmdynmem
ERROR: There is no module named 'hpvmdynmem'.
# cat </dev/hpvmdynmem
sh: /dev/hpvmdynmem: Cannot find or ope
Please let me know the reason & solution behind this....
Below is the solution provide by the SAP
Issue is there : is a process called SAP OS collector process was generating to many child procese.We concern this to SAP
& the provided the below solution
( My VM version is B.04.30)
Dear Customer,
It is a known issue at HP.
First of all refer to SAP note #918279:
[...]
IMPORTANT: When running inside a "HP Integrity Virtual Machines"
(HPVM) guest, the latest HPVM guest library patches must be installed
on the guest system. Otherwise the saposcol process might hang, when
collecting data.
Update the above-mentioned library AND also saposcol to the latest
version ( V3.1.1, see SAP note #918279).
In addition to this , HP gave following answer to a similar issue:
================================================================
CAUSE:
Collected the below outputs to verify .
# ll /dev/hpvmdynmem
# lsdev
# kcmodule hpvmdynmem
The hpvmdynmem device file is stale. It points to driver 144 which is
fcoc_fcp
and not to hpvmdynmem at 171.
Answer/Solution
FIX:
To remove and re-create the /dev/hpvmdynmem file
#rm /dev/hpvmdynmem
#mknod /dev/hpvmdynmem c 171 0
One can check if it works fine by doing:
# cat </dev/hpvmdynmem
It should printout some stats.
I copied the software from host to guest the path of the host is :/opt/hpvm/guest-images/hpux/11iv3/hpvm_guest_depot.11iv3.sd
The guest path is :/var/hp/depot/ hpvm_guest_depot.11iv3.sd .
I installed this S/W on the guest .
Therefore when I run the below commands no output shown e.g
#mknod /dev/hpvmdynmem c 171 0
# ll /dev/hpvmdynmem
# kcmodule hpvmdynmem
# cat </dev/hpvmdynmem
Request you to please suggest me on this.
Thanks & have a great day ahead.
Regards,
Vishal

Re: HPVM guest dynamic memory managment software
So the errors would suggest you don't have the VM guest libraries installed in your VM (or v6.x vPar).
What version of HPVM/vPars are you using?
I am an HPE Employee

Re: HPVM guest dynamic memory managment software
Did you install the VM guest kit inside the VM guest? This is required to use the Dynamic Memory feature.
