Integrity VM Guest Kit installation

The Integrity VM Guest Kit must be set up on the Ignite-UX server in order to properly ignite
an HP-UX guest. You should create a “golden image” that includes both the appropriate operating
environment and Integrity VM Guest Kit software. Creating a “golden image” will ensure you
have a properly ignited VM as part of the automatic provisioning process with Insight
Orchestration.

Configuring an environment for virtual provisioning

Virtual provisioning requires a correctly configured and licensed virtual machine host that is
discovered and visible in Systems Insight Manager. You can run either ESX or Hyper-V on the
virtual machine host. You can also manage Integrity VM using HP Infrastructure Orchestration
(see

“Setting up an Integrity virtual machine network”

).

For virtual logical server provisioning to perform correctly, Insight Orchestration limits the
number of virtual logical servers that are sent concurrently to hypervisors for provisioning. The
limit is determined by the value of the corresponding hypervisor “max.concurrent.requests”
attribute in the hpio.properties file located in ..\Program Files\HP\Insight
