A single word	`cat`	Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats".
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase.	`"cat food"` (quotation marks)	Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase.

Virtualization Infrastructure Aspects

Virtualization Infrastructure Aspects monitors the resource usage and availability of host, guests or virtual machines. It includes the virtualization discovery which discovers all the elements in a virtualized environment. It ensures the environment is healthy and available.

User Interface Reference

General	Provides an overview of the general attributes of the Virtualization Infrastructure Aspects.
CI Type	The type of CIs that can be assigned to the Aspect. This is the type of CI which is assigned to the Management Template. The Virtualization Infrastructure Aspects contain the Computer CI types.
Instrumentation	Provides an overview of the programs deployed to the CI types which contains the Aspect.
Aspects	Provides an overview of any Aspects that contain the Virtualization Infrastructure Aspect. You can expand each item in the list to see more details about the nested aspect.
Policy Templates	Provides an overview of the policy templates that contain the Virtualization Infrastructure Aspect. You can expand each item in the list to see more details about the policy template.

The Virtualization Infrastructure Aspects consists of the following:

IBM Power Guest Health

The IBM Power Guest Health Aspect monitors Guest availability in a Virtualized IBM LPAR Environment. This Aspect consists of the following policy templates:

CI Type	Policy Template	Indicator	Policy Description	Policy Type
Computer	Virt_IBMFrameAndLPARStateMonitor	NodeStatus	Monitors the IBM Frames and LPAR states.	Measurement Threshold
Computer	Virt_IBMWPARStateMonitor	NodeStatus	Monitors and reports on the state of IBM WPARs.	Measurement Threshold

Note: Before deploying Virt_IBMFrameAndLPARStateMonitor policy, run the getSSHAuthentication.pl script to connect to the HMC. This script is located under the /var/opt/OV/bin/instrumentation directory on the node (frame). The getSSHAuthentication.pl script provides you password-less access to the configuration information on the HMC.
