Virtualization of HP-UX

[Stefan Huber]

Hi Forum,

my manager wants to use HP-UX in a virtualized environment.
As far as I know, VMware doesn't support HP-UX on ESX?
What would be the best solution to use virtualization technology?

Thanks and best regards
Steve

Hi

Hi Forum,

As far as I know, VMware doesn't support HP-UX on ESX? ==> No


What would be the best solution to use virtualization technology? ==> which level of virtualization are you looking for?

Is that multiple Operating instances running on a single hardware?

HPVM will support you to use HP-UX, linux, windows, over virtual machines.

You can check more documentation at

Hi All,

thanks for the answers....
That solved my question.
I am looking into HPVM, because we want to run several operating instances on one box.

Thanks a lot.

... keep in mind you need ia64 hardware - this means an HP Integrity server.
