4.2.2.4 <strong>HP</strong>-UX 11i v3 Guests Might Fail to Configure Interface Cards Due to Lack of Memory<br />
<strong>HP</strong>-UX 11i v3 guests with small memory resources (less than or equal to 2 GB RAM) might fail to<br />
configure one or more virtual interface cards. Messages like the following might be seen on the<br />
guest console:<br />
wsio_claim init failed isc=0xe000000109c41400 name=mpt or<br />
igssn: The device at hardware path 0/0/1/0 failed initialization (3309).<br />
The error messages displayed in the case of guest system installation are as follows:<br />

The issue is resolved in PHKL_37452 that must be installed on the guest to prevent the problem.<br />
The problem might occur during installation, in which case it results in some devices not being<br />
presented in the installation interface.<br />
The solution is either to install the guest from the 11.31.0803 OE, which does not have the problem,<br />
or temporarily increase memory assigned to the guest above 2GB (for example 2.5GB), and lower<br />
it back to the intended size after the guest OS and PHKL_37452 is installed.<br />
4.2.2.5 Patches for <strong>HP</strong>-UX 11i v3 Guests<br />
Customers running <strong>HP</strong>-UX 11i v3 guests should install the following patches (or their superseding<br />
patches) in each guest running <strong>HP</strong>-UX 11i v3 :<br />
• PHKL_36261<br />
• PHKL_36242<br />
These patches prevent performance problems in environments where applications spawn large<br />
numbers of short-lived processes (such as development environments). To obtain these patches,<br />
contact your support specialist or <strong>HP</strong> representative.<br />
4.2.2.6 Do Not Run Live Kernel Debuggers Inside a Guest<br />
Do not run tools that write kernel text, such as live kernel debuggers and performance tools such<br />
as kgmon and ktracer inside a guest. Under rare circumstances, these tools cause the guest to<br />
panic.<br />
