vMP console

Hello
I have just created a virtual machine on my vm host.And accessing the virtual machine using hpvmconsole -p virtualmachine_name .i see vMP as it should be.But how could i exit from vMP .

I want to load the OS on the virtual machine ,so i'm accessing the console ...as i read in the manual i have booted the virtual machine using hpvmconsole -c 'pc -on' vmname.
but it just starts or in other words powering it up but not providing the wizard for the install.But i have created virtual device(dvd) for the vm.What is wrong?how do i install os onto the virtual machine.
Please advice
Thanks in advance.

Shalom,

Usually I exit the menu and type co to enter normal console mode.

Re: vMP console

It is advisable NOT to use the VM Host MP Console to connect to the vMP, due to issues with using Cntl B.
Also, all the documenation you need to help you is here:

Re: vMP console

Hi,

you should not use the real MP on the machine, because CTRL B is taking you to the real MP. You should telnet (or whatever) to the system and run the virtual console from there.

Just in case you are on the real console - use CTRL X to get into the vMP.

Hope this helps!

Torsten.
