Moving suspend files

When a VM is suspended, the suspend files are saved at a default location:/var/opt/hpvm/

. Suspend files can be very large, up to the size of guest memory for each suspended

guest. HP recommends moving the files to another directory.

The hpvmmove_suspend command can be used to change the directory, where suspend files

in /var to accommodate the suspend files, hpvmmove_suspend command can be used to move
them to a larger disk.
