HP (Hewlett-Packard) VM00540000 Personal Computer User Manual


 
-E cycles
Specifies the virtual machine's CPU entitlement in number of CPU clock cycles. If the cycles are not
specified with this option and the -e option is not specified, the new virtual machine's entitled CPU
resources will be that of the existing virtual machine.
The cycles are expressed as an integer, followed by one of the following letters to specify units:
M: Megahertz
G: Gigahertz
If no letter is specified, the default unit is Megahertz.
The value of entitlement inherited from the existing virtual machine (specified in either cycles or
percentages) will be replaced in the new virtual machine by the new value in CPU clock cycles.
The -e and the -E options are mutually exclusive.
-N clone_vm_name
Specifies the name to be assigned to the new virtual machine. The name can be composed of up to 256
alphanumeric characters, including A-Z, a-z, 0-9, the dash (-), the underscore character (_), and the
period (.).
The virtual machine name must not start with a dash (-).
-l vm_label
Specifies a descriptive text string for the new virtual machine. This can be useful in identifying a
specific virtual machine in the hpvmstatus -V display. The label can be up to 256 alphanumeric
characters, includingA-Z, a-z, 0-9, thedash (-), the underscorecharacter (_), and theperiod (.). If white
space is desired, the label must be quoted ("").
-B start_attr
Specifies the startupbehavior of the virtualmachine. The start_attr attributecan havethe following
(case-insensitive) values:
auto: Automatically start the virtual machine when Integrity VM is initialized on the host.
manual: Manually start the virtual machine.
If the start_attr attribute is set to auto, the virtual machine is started when Integrity VM is
initialized. This normally occurs when the VM Host is booted, but also occurs if Integrity Virtual
Machines is stopped and restarted on a running VM Host. Integrity VM attempts to start all virtual
machines for which the attribute is set to auto. If insufficient resources exist, some virtual machines
may fail to start.
If the attribute is set to manual, the virtual machine will not be started automatically when Integrity
VM is initialized on the VM Host. The virtual machine can then be started manually with the
hpvmstart command or through its virtual console.
This option does not set the virtual machine's console to enable booting when the virtual machine is
started. This function must be set with the virtual machine's console.
-O os_type[:version]
Specifies the type and version of the operating system running on the virtual machine. The response
will affect the default selection of certain virtual machine attributes, such as amount of memory and
CPU power.
operating-system-type can have the following (case-insensitive) values:
HPUX - Specifies the HP-UX operating system.
Windows - Specifies the Windows operating system.
The version specifies a descriptive text stringof the version ofthe operating system. The version string
can consist of up to 256 alphanumeric characters, including A-Z, a-z, 0-9, the dash (-), the underscore
character (_), and the period (.). If white space is desired then version must be quoted.
-a rsrc
Adds an I/O resource to the new virtual machine. The resource specification (rsrc) is described in
hpvmresources(1M).
This option can be specified more than once.
