HPUX virtualization (VMMGR)

[kiran b jadhav]

Hello Gyan Guru's,

What are the steps to do HPUX virtualization. I want to install it on server HP RX 2660.
Is it a license product?
Can get a trial version?
what is HP-SIM, is it required to install?

Please help me out.

Thanks...
Kiran

You can only use HPVM on this server.

At least all the previous versions had a trial option available from

http://software.hp.com

You cannot install HPVM and HP SIM on the same system.

Please throw some more light on this topic to get clear idea.

Best to read the manual:

The documents are quite confusing. I am very new to this concept so if you give me basic steps of HPUx virtualization then it will help me a lot.

I just want to do virtualisation on HP RX 2660 servers.


what is "Installing VM Manager on HP SIM"?
what is "Installing VM Manager on HP SMH"?
From where i'll get free trial version.. link etc..?

From the first link I gave you locate

HP Integrity Virtual Machines 4.2: Installation, Configuration, and Administration

and read it. It explains everything.

Software is here:

Thanks for providing the trial version. If you have any procedure/steps to do this virtualization then please send it.
