Running the OneCommand Manager Application on a Guest
Operating System
When the OneCommand Manager application is installed and executes on a VM’s
guest operating system, it runs in a local-only/read-only mode. Therefore, only the
guest host containing the adapter and NIC port is displayed in the discovery-tree.
Active management of the NIC properties is not available thereby preventing
OneCommand Manager running on the guest operating system from performing
operations that could adversely affect the host operating system or other guest
operating systems; such as firmware download, diagnostics or DCB changes from the
guest operating system. By preventing remote access to the host operating systems, the
guest operating system cannot affect the operation of the adapter.
Viewing NIC PCI Registers
The NIC PCI Registers tab displays base PCI registers. See “Viewing the PCI Registers”
on page 266 for FC PCI register information.
