serious help needed with IVM!

[cheesytime]

Hello,

I just installed HP-UX 11.31 release 4 and decided to give IVM a try.

I have created a virtual machine using the following setup:

# hpvmstatus -V -P test

The box is a rx2660, the image is from an rx3600 box.

# hpvmnet

======== ====== ======= ========= ======== ============== ===============
localnet 1 Up Shared N/A N/A
switch 5 Up Shared lan1 0x001cc4fc844c 10.1.10.50

First question here is, what is 10.1.10.50? That is the IP address of MY lan0 on the host box, I DO NOT want that address to be the IP address of that guest, right?

hpvmstart seems to be working just fine:

Suggestions?

[sujit kumar singh]

Hi


would like to learn few more things. The IVM is on rx2660 and this was ignited using an image of rx36XX.
Was that Ignite source a Golden image or a make_net_archive?
regards
sujit

[Torsten.]

Regarding question 1)
- this is the IP on the host, not the guest

2) you need to connect to the guest's console now (hpvmconsole).

[cheesytime]

This was a make_net_archive imake.

[melvyn burnard]

First item, try using an attachment with all of this detail next time, to save us scrolling thru loads of lines.
Second item:
>localnet 1 Up Shared N/A N/A
>switch 5 Up Shared lan1 0x001cc4fc844c >10.1.10.50

>question here is, what is 10.1.10.50? That >is the IP address of MY lan0 on the host >box, I DO NOT want that address to be the >IP address of that guest, right?

The output is showing you that you have a Virtual Switch that is assigned to lan5 on the host, and that the host has an IP address configured on it. This has NOTHING to do with whatever IP address you assign to the Virtual NIC in the VM that is "connected" into this vswitch.

Next item, define "and it hangs in there FOREVER". How long have you let it "hang"?
To be honest, I think using an exisiting physical server image is NOT a good idea, and recommend you take a read of the Vpars documents and White Papers, especially:
http://docs.hp.com/en/7947/UsingIgniteWithHPVMmay05.pdf

[melvyn burnard]

I would also suggest you possibly consider taking the Customer Course on HP Integrity Virtual Machines, as a lot is covered in there that may help you with all of your questions you have been posting around this product

[Rita C Workman]

Did you edit the /etc/bootptab file on the Ignite server?
Did you double check to ensure there were no typos?

As Melvyn said that hpvmnet output is correct and would reflect the VMHost IP - but in your hpvmstatus -V output I don't see you assigned the client a host - so again - what's in your IUX /etc/bootptab file?

Rgrds,
Rita

[Rita C Workman]

Sorry...my own typo:

"....but in your hpvmstatus -V output I don't see you assigned the client a host - so ..."

Should say:

"...but in your hpvmstatus -V output I don't see you assigned the client an IP - so .."

[cheesytime]

I would like to archive the something on HP-UX

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=433771

I think this is due to a bug... help...!

[Torsten.]

The guest has no access to VGA.

What happens when you do

# hpvmconsole -P test

-> select "co" for console

[cheesytime]

I start the virtual machine, i run hpvmconsole -P test and then type CO, that gets me to its console

Console is on Serial COM1
Booting kernel...

Then the booting kernel hangs, I assume thats because the kernel is NOT detecting any serial device or something like that?

I DONT see ANYTHING else besides that.

Forgive my question....

But you you created a VMClient (using hpvmcreate).

What I'm thinking is you probably need to go back and load the O/S using either an IUX server and setting up the /etc/bootptab file and putting a "lanboot" option to load from in EFI. Or you could load your O/S from the DVD, or if you prefer iso file. These are fairly standard recommended methods for installing the O/S to a VMClient.

Why not try using one of these standard methods to load your O/S and see how that works, since the method of using that rx3600 image isn't.

Just a suggestion,
Rita
