HP\Insight Orchestration\conf\sysprep\Sysprep_sample.inf

.

An Insight Orchestration administrator can edit sysprep files based on the sample file to
specify additional customizations for Windows virtual machines.

To enable customization on:

VMware vCenter 4.0, install the Microsoft Sysprep tools on the vCenter management server
in the folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application
Data\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\sysprep\svrOS

.

Where is the Windows guest operating system and can be 2003, 2003-64, 2008, or
2008-64. The “All Users” (and potentially other portions) of the path may vary depending on
your Windows installation and upgrade history on the vCenter server.

Microsoft Hyper-V:

To support Windows 2003 VM guests, install the Microsoft Sysprep tools on the CMS in
the HP folder ..\Program Files\HP\Insight Control virtual machine
management\Sysprep\2003

.

No modification is required to support only Windows 2008 VM guests.

See

“Virtual service creation” (page 91)

for troubleshooting information about modifying

the sysprep.inf file to allow a Windows 2008 virtual machine guest to join an Active
Directory domain.

For more information, see the VMware vCenter and Installing the Microsoft Sysprep Tools article
in the

VMware Infrastructure 3 Online Library

Configuring an environment for physical provisioning

For physical provisioning to perform correctly, set the following attributes in the ..\Program
Files\HP\Insight Orchestration\conf\hpio.properties

file.

Set physical.max.concurrent.requests=10 to limit the number of concurrent physical
logical servers provisioned. If you set the attribute to a value greater than 10, physical logical
server provisioning might fail.

Set npiv.integrity.enabled=true to enable multi-initiator N-Port ID Virtualization
(m-NPIV) support.

m-NPIV is supported on Integrity server blades using the QLogic FC controller with the HP-UX
11i v3 Update 8 (March 2011) and later release.

Physical provisioning requires:

Available VC Domain groups in Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager (VCEM)

Configuring server deployment platforms including Insight Control server deployment, Ignite-UX,
or HP Server Automation

Creating SAN-backed storage

Creating job folders (this is specific to Insight Control server deployment; see

“Configuring

Ignite-UX” (page 23)

and

“Configuring HP Server Automation” (page 24)

)

Verifying VC Domain groups

Insight Orchestration requires virtual domain groups. To create a virtual domain group or verify
an existing group, see the HP Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager User Guide at

HP Insight

Dynamics Information Library
