We are using HPUX 10.20, 11.00 and 11.11.
We have configured HP Integrity Virtual Machines in new 6600 server.
Now we would like to create virtual machines in that and like to move current physical server in to that.
I have some questions?
1) What are the main things, we have to concentrate before moving the physical server to virtual server.
2)what are the criticality that we will face when moving physical server to virtual server.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: HPUX server consolidation.
1) Having enough physical memory and boot devices to configure these systems. I would want a boot device, some disk space, and 2-4 GB of RAM for each HPVM system I set up. More if its a heavy duty system doing a lot of work.
The rx6600 has a large memory capacity and a large number of SAS disks. It can do a fairly large amount of work. I would if you really plan a big consolidation on having as many CPU's as the system can handle.
2) Memory, CPU availability and perhaps disk I/O. I do not recommend booting systems of a SAN. If you use a SAN I'd want a fairly large number of HBA's in the system to avoid bottlenecks on disk I/O.

Re: HPUX server consolidation.
OS minimum version is 11.23!
impossible to run 10.20, 11.00 or 11.11!
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: HPUX server consolidation.
Not 100% correct, you can mix 11.23 and 11.31; additionally you can run linux and windows in virtual machines.
Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Re: HPUX server consolidation.
Maybe not.
All applications will have to be migrated and in some cases data will have to be converted.

Re: HPUX server consolidation.
But there are going to be version issues and much migration work, either way.
