Start Virtual Server: Service Details - HPE XP7 Automation Director User Manual

Server requirements
The following servers are needed:
• Hyper-V server
Server on which Hyper-V is installed.
• Virtual server
Virtual server managed by Hyper-V
Usage guidelines
• This service template does not initialize the virtual disks that are added to the virtual server. If
necessary, log on to the OS of the virtual server and initialize the disks.
• Do not concurrently run multiple instances of this service on the same virtual server.
• You can specify HTML tags for the property UserResponseplugin.dialogText. The specifiable tags and
attributes are the same as those for the User-Response Wait plug-in. For details, see the topic about
the User-Response Wait plug-in in the documentation.
• You cannot add any virtual disk files that are already created on a Hyper-V server.
• If you select "Shutdown" from the UI of the User-Response Wait plug-in, the OS of the virtual server is
forcibly shut down. Data in files that are being edited on the virtual server is not saved.
• If another virtual disk is already connected to the specified SCSI controller location of the specified
SCSI controller, this task terminates abnormally.
• For second-generation virtual servers, you can add only virtual disks that are in VHDX file format. If
you attempt to connect a created VHD file to a second-generation virtual server, this task terminates
abnormally.

Start virtual server: Service details

The processing overview is as follows:
1. The status of a virtual server is obtained.
2. If the virtual server is stopped, it is started. If the virtual server is running, processing is skipped. In all
other cases, processing for that virtual server ends in an error.
3. If the network connection check is enabled, the IP address (IPv4) set for the virtual server that was
started is obtained. Then the local server sends an ICMP echo request to that server to check whether
it is connected to the network.
The above processing is performed in parallel for the specified virtual servers.
Before a virtual server is started, a check of the virtual server status is performed for the number of times
specified by the property hyperv.checkVmStateEnabledCount, at the interval specified (in seconds) by the
property hyperv.checkVmStateEnabledInterval. Adjust the values of these properties based on your
environmental requirements.
