HP Integrity Virtual Machines Manager

HP Integrity Virtual Machines Manager (VM Manager) is used to view and manage virtual machines running under HP Integrity Virtual Machines. For information about managing virtual machines on HP ProLiant systems, see “HP Virtual Machine Management Pack”.

From the Visualization tab in Virtualization Manager, you can access VM Manager in the following ways:

VM Manager helps you to create and monitor virtual machines using HP Integrity Virtual Machines (Integrity VM). Integrity VM running on HP Integrity servers creates software-controlled virtual machines that share a single set of physical hardware resources. Each virtual machine is a complete environment that runs its own instance of an operating system (called a guest OS). Like a physical machine, the virtual machine contains at least one processor core, memory, disks, network interfaces, a console, and other virtual components. Virtual components are partially emulated in software rather than fully implemented in hardware.

VM Manager provides a graphical view of the virtual machines running under a VM Host, their utilization metrics, the virtual resources assigned to them, and the physical resources from which the virtual resources are obtained. Actions you can perform from VM Manager include the following:
