Use the Windows Remote Desktop to manage the Windows
guest:
Log in as Administrator and configure Windows
TCP/IP using the same networking information supplied earlier at the SAC> prompt. Install SNMP from the Windows Management
and Monitoring Tools and configure it. SNMP is required for the HP
Systems Insight Manager (SIM), which provides the Virtual Server Environment
(VSE).
The HP Integrity Support Pack for Windows provides
the components required for managing the Windows guest using VSE,
including:
Basic Windows updates for Integrity VM
System Management Homepage
To install the SSM media, you must first insert
it into the virtual DVD. If the virtual DVD is mapped to the physical
DVD, then you will need to physically insert the SSM media disk into
the physical DVD drive on the VM Host.
If your virtual DVD is mapped to an ISO file (for
example, the Windows installation media), you must virtually eject
the current media and virtually insert the SSM. To do this, modify
the virtual DVD so that it now maps to the ISO file containing the
SSM.
For example, the following hpvmstatus command displays the virtual DVD on the Windows guest vmwin0:
# hpvmstatus -P vmwin0 |grep scsi
disk scsi 0 0 0 0 0 file /hpvm/VHD/vmwin0/vhd0
dvd scsi 0 0 0 1 0 file /ISO/MS_Ent_Ed_wSP1.iso |
To change the virtual DVD, you must use the virtual
bus, device, and target values for the existing DVD with the hpvmmodify command. For example, in the hpvmstatus example, the virtual bus, device, and target are 0, 0, and 1, respectively.
The corresponding hpvmmodify command is:
# hpvmmodify -P vmwin0 -m dvd:scsi::0,0,1:file:/ISO/SmartSetup.iso |
Now that the SSM is in the virtual DVD, it will
appear in the Windows Explorer display that corresponds to My Computer. From the Explorer window, open the DVD
and then open the start.html file there. This
file has information to guide you through installation of SSM. Consult
the Smart Setup Guide for more details.
After install the Smart Setup, install the components
of HP's Smart Update media. This media is available from HP.
Insert the Smart Update media into the virtual DVD as described for
SSM. You initiate the Smart Update installation the same way you
initiated SSM. Open the virtual DVD, then open the start.html file. Install OS and Security components and other components of
Smart Update that apply to your Windows system deployment
To enable VSE, modify the Windows Firewall settings,
as follows:
As the administrator of the Windows guest, open the
Windows Firewall utility from the Control Panel and select the Exceptions
tab:
Create an opening in the firewall for the VSE providers.
Select Add Port… Set the name to wbem-https. Set the port number to 5989, and select TCP. For example:
You can now monitor and manage the Windows guest
using VM Manager and HP SMH. For more information, see the Getting Started with VM Manager manual.
To shut down a Windows guest, use the Windows
system management procedures. The Integrity VM commands for stopping
guests do not shut down the Windows software properly and can lead
to problems when the Windows guest is rebooted.
