Integrity VM Trial Bundle NOT WORKING

[Cresswell Williams]

Hi Experts

We installed Integrity VM Trial Version on HP-UX11.31 (0903) Base OE. The product is installed but I cannot use the VM commands such as hpvmcreate, hpvmnet etc.

Here is the output from swlist:
swlist | grep -i Integrity
T2801AA B.04.10.02 Integrity VM Trial Bundle
VMGuestLib B.04.10 Integrity VM Guest Support Libraries
VMGuestSW B.04.10 Integrity VM Guest Support Software
VMProvider B.04.10 WBEM Provider for Integrity VM

Here is the output from hpvmcreate:
hpvmcreate
sh: hpvmcreate: not found.

I disabled the Hyper-threading on this machine but no luck.
Should I activate the software before I can use it or what. I'm totally stumped.

Thank you

To use the commands you must be able to find the commands. I would suggest you use the absolute paths. Or source your ~/.profile and see if that sets PATH.

[Cresswell Williams]

Thank you for the response.

The thing is these commands are not installed. Here is the output from the find command:

As you can see there are no commands installed.

I would have expected installation to add /opt/hpvm/bin the file /etc/PATH - is it not there?

Did installtion complete successfully? What's the output of:

swlist -l fileset -a state T2801AA

Do you have the "day one" HPVM4.1 patches installed:

PHSS_39342
PHSS_39354

I just downloaded the T2801AA product and I can see the hpvmcreate (and all other commands) in the depot fine.

So I think your install maybe failed in some way...

Here is the output from swlist:
swlist -l fileset -a state T2801AA
# Initializing...
# Contacting target "VSESVR"...
#
# Target: VSESVR:/
#

# T2801AA
# T2801AA.VMAGENT
T2801AA.VMAGENT.VMAGENT-LIB corrupt
T2801AA.VMAGENT.VMAGENT-RUN corrupt

I have removed the software and tried re-installing it. But it fails with this errors:
ERROR: The dependencies for fileset "HPVM.HPVM-CORE,r=B.04.10.02"cannot be resolved (see previous lines)

The dependencies for fileset "HPVM.HPVM-VMSGTK,r=B.04.10.02" cannot be resolved (see previous lines).

ERROR: The dependencies for fileset

SO you need to post the whole install log - which you should find near the bottom of the file /var/adm/sw/swagent.log

Hi

Please find attached the swagent.log file for the T2801AA installation and the PHSS_39342 patch installation.

Here is the other one

[Torsten.]

Please check the MD5 checksum for the bundle, maybe you have a corrupted download.

[Cresswell Williams]

Thanks for the responses.

I have checked and there is nothing wrong with the bundles. I believe this is a dependency issue, but I do have Base OE 0903 installed!

[Cresswell Williams]

Hi Duncan

Please send me the link where you downloaded your version of T2801AA and also an output of the version and release of your O/S.

Thank you

[Torsten.]

There is only a single source for download that I'm aware of:

http://h20392.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=integrity_vm41

MD5 is 7976471d77402af6c166dbf746bd16db

[Duncan Edmonstone]

I'm sure there's a reason why the fileset you require is missing from the trial download... I'm asking internally to understand why that is...

Anyway the software you need is the VMkernelSW product which should be on the March 2009 11iv3 Application DVD - Part Number - 5014-1423 (1st DVD).

It's odd that this isn't in the trial bundle or seperately downloadable - I'll ask why not.

>Duncan: It's odd that this isn't in the trial bundle or separately downloadable

Perhaps that would make the download too big?
It probably doesn't matter if it is downloadable. But what it should say is that it is depending on VMkernelSW, with the details like you said.

[Duncan Edmonstone]

Cresswell,

The VMkernelSW software is available for download from the same page as the rest of HPVM:

http://h20392.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=integrity_vm41

What isn't made clear is that this either needs putting into the same depot as the rest of the software (for a single install), or must be installed first before installing the other products.

Hi Guys

Thanks for the responses.

I finally fixed it: HP SIM was the cause!!
I uninstalled it and the trial bundle installed perfectly.

Thanks
