View summary, hardware, and ioScan information

This section describes how to view information for HPVM hypervisors/vPars containers/HPVMs/vPars, and vSwitches.

To view information:

  1. Follow the steps in Launch the HP-UX Virtualization Manager to display the HP-UX Virtual Servers window (see the following figure).

  1. Double-click HP-UX Virtualization Manager to display the HP-UX Virtual Servers window, which contains a list of HPVM hypervisors/vPars containers associated with that manager (see the following figure).

    To view individual HPVMs/vPars/vSwitches, click the arrow to the left of the HPVM hypervisor/vPars container associated with that individual component (see the following table).
