hpvmmgmt — Manage dynamic data within the Integrity VM guest environment.



  • NAME
    hpvmmgmt — Manage dynamic data within the Integrity VM guest environment.
    
    SYNOPSIS
    hpvmmgmt [-l type] [ -V -M -X ] [-v]
    
    hpvmmgmt [-l type] [-t interval] [-V] [-v]
    
    hpvmmgmt [-v] [-x keyword=value or] [-x keyword=value:keyword=value]
    
    DESCRIPTION
    The hpvmmgmt command allows you to view and potentially manage dynamic guest 
    data. To manage the data, the VM Host must have configured the guest to do so.
    
    To obtain a display in machine-readable or XML format, use the -M or -X option.
    
    The hpvmmgmt command without options displays a summary of types of Integrity 
    VM management data that the guest can view and, if appropriate, change.
    
    Only superusers can execute the hpvmmgmt command.
    
    Options
    Only the -x option can be specified more than once.
    
    The hpvmmgmt command recognizes the following options and attributes:
    
    -l type
    Specifies the type of data to list more information about. For the type 
    parameter, enter ram.
    
    -t interval
    Used in conjunction with the -l option, this option allows the hpvmmgmt command 
    to continuously refetch the requested type of data using the value specified 
    for the interval attribute (specified in seconds) between updates. If the -t 
    option is not specified, the data is only fetched once. The hpvmmgmt command 
    forces the value to a maximum interval.
    
    -v
    Displays the version number of the hpvmmgmt command. The version number is 
    displayed first, followed by information specified by other options.
    
    -V
    Displays detailed information (verbose mode) about the virtual machines. When 
    the hpvmmgmt command is run with only this option, the output displays the 
    valid name value pairs for each type of modifiable dynamic data type known.
    
    The -V, -M, and -X options are mutually exclusive.
    
    -M
    Displays verbose attribute and resource information in machine-readable format.
    
    Individual fields are separated by one of three delimiters:
    
    The colon (:) separates each field and resource type.
    
    The semicolon (;) separates subfields of a resource type.
    
    The comma (,) separates individual items in a list of similar items.
    
    The -V, -M, and -X options are mutually exclusive.
    
    -X
    Displays verbose attribute and resource information in the XML format.
    
    The -V, -M, and -X options are mutually exclusive.
    
    -x keyword=value
    Specifies virtual machine characteristics. Use the following keywords:
    
    -x ram_target={0 | start | amount}
    
    Specifies the guest RAM target, where the values are as follows:
    
    0 indicates the dynamic memory driver reduces the memory on the guest to what 
    it determines is a comfortable minimum that does not result in guest memory 
    being paged out.
    
    start indicates that the guest dynamic memory size is set back to the boot time 
    value.
    
    amount is a specific target memory size for the guest.
    
    RETURN VALUES
    The hpvmmgmt command exits with one of the following values:
    
    0: Successful completion.
    1: One or more error conditions occurred.
    DIAGNOSTICS
    The hpvmmgmt command displays error messages on stderr for any of the following 
    conditions:
    
    An invalid option is specified.
    
    The hpvmmgmt command and Integrity VM are at different revision levels.
    
    EXAMPLES
    The following example lists all the types of data that can be managed, as well 
    as the name value pairs:
    
    
    # hpvmmgmt Type Guest Control ====== ============= ram yes
    
    The following example shows the detailed information about the manageable data:
    
    
    # hpvmmgmt -l ram -V [Dynamic Memory Information] 
    ======================================= Type : driver Current memory : 2103 MB 
    Target memory : 2103 MB Comfortable minimum : 2423 MB Minimum memory : 1222 MB 
    Maximum memory : 6144 MB Boot memory : 6135 MB Free memory : 124 MB Available 
    memory : 286 MB Memory pressure : 12 Memory chunksize : 65536 KB Driver 
    Mode(s): STARTED ENABLED GUESTCTL
    
    The following example sets the dynamic RAM target to the original boot amount:
    
    
    # hpvmmgmt -x ram_target=0 Attempting to decrease memory from 2039 MB to 745 
    MB. Successfully began to change ram_target to 745 MB. # hpvmmgmt -x 
    ram_target=start Attempting to increase memory from 929 MB to 2039 MB. 
    Successfully began to change ram_target to 2039 MB.
