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 a virtual machine. The resource is specified as described in the --m option.
This option can be specified more than once.
-d rsrc
Deletes an I/Oresource from a virtualmachine. The resource isspecified as described inthe -m option.
The physical device portion of the rsrc is optional.
This option can be specified more than once.
-m rsrc
Modifies an existing I/O resource for a virtual machine. The resource is specified as described below.
You must specify the hardware address of the device to modify. The physical device portion of the
rsrc specifies a new physical device that will replace the one in use.
This option can be specified more than once.
The rsrc specifies the mapping of a guest virtual device to a VM Host backing store. Integrity VM
guests access virtual devicesthat are instantiated on physical entities managed by theVM Host. These
physical entities (for example, network cards, files, logical volumes, disk partitions, and so forth) are
collectively referred to as "backing stores."
Integrity VM recognizes the following types of guest virtual devices:
• Virtual disks, which can be backed by files in a VM Host file system, by logical volumes, by disk
partitions, or by whole disks.
• Virtual DVDs, which can be backed by files in a VM Host file system or by the physical DVD
drive.
• Virtual network devices, which are created through the hpvmnet command and backed by
physical LAN cards. See the hpvmnet manpage for more information about virtual network
devices.
For information about specifying storage and network resources for guests, see hpvmresources(1M).
-N new_vm_name
Specifies the new name for the virtual machine being modified, assuming no virtual machine with
that name already exists. The name can consist of up to 256 alphanumeric characters, including A-Z,
a-z, 0-9, the dash (-), the underscore character (_), and period (.). The virtual machine name must not
start with a dash (-).
The virtual machine name can only be changed by using the -N option.
The name change takes effect immediately.
-c number_vcpus
Specifies the numberof virtual CPUs this virtual machinesees at boot time. Ifunspecified, the number
defaults to one.
-r amount
Specifies the amount of memory available to this virtual machine.
The sizes are expressed as integers, optionally followed by one of the following letters:
• M -megabytes
• G -gigabytes
If the letter is omitted, the unit defaults to megabytes.
-g [+|-]group[:{admin|oper}]
Adds (+ orunspecified) or removes (-) a groupauthorization. A VM Host useraccount that is a member
of an authorized group can use the hpvmconsole command to manage this guest. {admin|oper}
specifies the privilege level available at the hpvmconsole, either admin or oper (the default). Do
not specify the privilege level when you are removing a group.
This option can be specified more than once.
