4.2.1 HP-UX 11.31 Guests May Fail to Configure More than Two MPT Interfaces If an HP-UX 11.31 system is configured with less than 2112 MB of memory, no more than two MPT interfaces are successfully configured. If more than two interfaces are desired, allocate at least 2.5 GB of memory to the guest. 4.2.2 Patches for HP-UX 11.31 Guests Customers running HP-UX 11.31 guests should install the following patches (or their superseding patches) in each guest running HP-UX 11.31: • PHKL_36261 • PHKL_36242 These patches prevent performance problems in environments where applications spawn large numbers of short-lived processes (such as development environments). To obtain these patches, contact your support specialist or HP representative. 4.2.3 Do Not Run Live Kernel Debuggers Inside a Guest Do not run tools that write kernel text, such as live kernel debuggers and performance tools such as kgmon and ktracer inside a guest. Under rare circumstances, these tools cause the guest to panic. 4.2.4 Do Not Use the iomap(7) Command on HP-UX Guests The iomap(7) command allows you to map physical I/O addresses into the user process address space. Do not use this command on HP-UX guests. 4.2.5 iCAP Commands Fail on HP-UX Guests iCAP is installed as part of the HP-UX OS installation. Install-time configuration of iCAP reports failure with messages similar to the following: NOTE: ERROR: Checking for partitionable system. Software configuration has failed. After addressing the issues in the following output, configure this software with 'swconfig B9073BA'. ERROR: Command not allowed to run on a Virtual Machine Guest. ERROR: The "configure" script for "iCOD.ICOD-RUN" failed (exit code "1"). The script location was "/var/adm/sw/products/iCOD/ICOD-RUN/configure". * This script had errors and the execution of this fileset cannot proceed until the problem is fixed. Check the above output from the script for further details. * Running config clean command /usr/lbin/sw/config_clean. * Summary of Execution Phase: ERROR: Installed iCOD.ICOD-RUN,l=/,r=B.11.23.08.00.00.95 ERROR: 1 of 882 filesets had Errors. * 881 of 882 filesets had no Errors or Warnings. ERROR: The Execution Phase had errors. See the above output for details. These startup messages in /etc/rc.log may be disregarded. iCAP commands cannot be used on virtual machines. iCAP commands are designed to work on the VM Host system. This problem is resolved in guests running HP-UX 11i V2 0706 and later. 4.3 Linux Guests The following sections describe release notes for Linux guests. 4.3 Linux Guests 29
