You can view a Virtual Guest Package (VGP) and review or change the predefined parameters to edit the configuration of the new virtual system (for example, VM, LPAR, non-global zone) that are created from the package. Depending on the Virtual Guest Type, you see different configuration panels in the package editor. This topic contains the following sections:
To edit the Virtual Guest Package
- Select the package, right-click and choose Open.
In the content editor, navigate to any of the tabs, based on the virtualization platforms, and review or edit the settings. These settings enable you to use the VGP as base, and then customize the options to suit your needs for the new virtual system.
The settings on the tabs in the VGP are very similar to the options you specify when completing the Virtual Guest Job for a specific environment. For information about the platform-specific VGP options, click the tab that applies to your virtual environment.
Note
If the VGP is based on a template, you must select the Customize OS checkbox on the VMware - Config panel.
