Cannot deploy Integrity VM guests when gWLM is controlling the host

If IO chooses a host controlled by gWLM for deploying an Integrity VM guest service template, the
guest cannot start and the following messages appear in the /var/opt/hpvm/common/
command.log

:

Issue

05/31/12 11:43:45|ERROR|Guest_number|root|Guest Guest_number has been

marked as not startable.

05/31/12 11:43:45|ERROR|Guest_number|root|An external manager (gWLM) is

managing VMs on this Host. This manager is located on location and can

be accessed via http://location. Add the VM to the manager to make it

available for starting.

Integrity VM guests cannot be deployed when gWLM is controlling the VM host.

Possible cause

Exclude any Integrity VM hosts and VSPs under the control of gWLM from the IO server pools.

Action

OS deployment through Insight Control server deployment fails when deploying to a SAN booted
physical server

The operating system deployment process through Insight Control server deployment fails when
deploying to a SAN booted physical server.

Issue

If the target server is sharing FC zones with other servers in the environment, changes in the SAN,
like an RSCN (Registered State Change Notification) event may lead to operating system deployment
or SAN boot failures.

Possible cause

Use initiator WWN zones to isolate each of the servers within the fabric. This is a typical best-practice
in SANs where servers are booted from a disk within the SAN. See

“Configuring storage pool

entries, FC zones, and disk array presentations” (page 209)

.
