  Chapter 13: VMready

BMD00220, October 2010

The bandwidth shaping parameters in the VM profile are used by the hypervisor virtual 

switch software. To set bandwidth policies for individual VEs, see 

Once configured, the VM profile may be assigned to a distributed VM group as shown in the 
following section.

A VM profile is required before a distributed VM group may be configured. See 

 for details.

Once a VM profile is available, a distributed VM group may be initialized using the following 
configuration command:

Only one VM profile can be assigned to a given distributed VM group. To change the VM profile, 
the old one must first be removed using the following ISCLI configuration command:

The VM profile can be added only to an empty VM group (one that has no VLAN, VMs, or 

port members). Any VM group number currently configured for a local VM group (see 

) cannot be converted and must be deleted before it can be used for a 

distributed VM group.

VMs, ports, and trunks may be added to the distributed VM group only after the VM profile is 
assigned. Group members are added, pre-provisioned, or removed from distributed VM groups in 
the same manner as with local VM groups (

), with the following 

exceptions:

VMs: VMs and other VEs are not required to be local. Any VE known by the virtualization 
management server can be part of a distributed VM group.

The VM group 

vlan

 option (see 

) cannot be used with distributed VM groups. For 

distributed VM groups, the VLAN is assigned in the VM profile.
