• VM Host(s) : The host name of the VM Host on which this virtual machine is configured.
This is a hyperlink to the VM Host view. If the VM Host is an nPartition, the label “(contained
in nPartition)” is displayed and “nPartition” is a hyperlink to Partition Manager for that
nPartition.
If the virtual machine is managed by HP Serviceguard and is hosted on multiple VM Hosts,
all of the VM Hosts are listed here.
• VM Description : The description of the virtual machine, if the description is available.
• Virtual Hardware Status : This indicates the status of the virtual hardware of a virtual
machine. For a description of the status, position the cursor over the icon.
If the virtual machine has migrated to another VM Host, the hardware status of the virtual
machine is indicated as Not Runnable ( Not Runnable). The VM Configuration Information
section includes two additional lines of information explaining the cause of the Not Runnable
status, as described below.
If the virtual machine is an HP Serviceguard package that is managed by another VM Host,
this field also displays a status icon ( ) that indicates so. Flyover text shows the status of
the hardware (On) and the name of the VM Host currently managing the virtual machine
(Serviceguard guest package).
• Operating System : Indicates the last OS type to be booted on this virtual machine. If the
virtual machine has never been booted, this field contains the value that was supplied when
the virtual machine was created.
• OS Status : Indicates the OS status for a virtual machine, such as Up, Down, Initializing
(indicating that the virtual machine has just been started and is being initialized — the OS
is not yet active), or In EFI (indicating that the virtual machine is in the firmware interface
and an OS has not yet been booted). If the virtual machine is migrating an icon indicates the
direction of migration ( indicates migration to another host; indicates migration from
another host). If the virtual machine is waiting to migrate (when multiple virtual machines
are selected to migrate, only one is migrated at a time), an hourglass icon ( ) indicates so;
to view changes in migration status, click Refresh Data. For a description of the status,
position the cursor over the icon.
• Boot Attribute : Indicates the hardware startup attribute for a virtual machine, which
determines its startup behavior (that is, whether the virtual machine is started automatically
when the virtual machine boots or whether it must be manually started). To use VM Manager
to modify this attribute, click Modify
→ Virtual Machine Hardware Auto Start.
• Graceful Stop Timeout : If supported by the version of Integrity VM running on the VM
Host, this specifies the amount of time HP Integrity VM waits for I/O activity to complete
before stopping a virtual machine. The timeout value is set at the VM Host command line
by using the hpvmmodify command.
• Online Migration Enabled : Indicates whether the virtual machine is enabled for online
migration or whether the VM Host is not licensed to support online migration. The VM Host
administrator can enable a virtual machine by using the hpvmmodify command at the VM
Host. The following table shows in the third column what the status field displays, based
on the state of the VM Host and virtual machine listed in the first and second column,
respectively:

Host not licensed Enabled or disabled Unlicensed
