DESCRIPTION
vmkloader loads or unloads the VMkernel. With no flags, it loads
the VMkernel specified by VMKERNEL-BINARY. If the VMkernel is
already loaded, the load will fail.
OPTIONS
-f
When specified with -u, forces VMkernel unload even if a
virtual
machine is currently running on it.
-u
Unload the VMkernel. The VMKERNEL-BINARY argument is ignored
and the
VMkernel is unloaded as long as no virtual machines are currently
running on the VMkernel. If there are virtual machines running,
then
the unload fails.
EXAMPLES
vmkloader /usr/lib/vmware/vmkernel
loads the VMkernel binary /usr/lib/vmware/vmkernel.
vmkloader -u
unloads the VMkernel if there are no virtual machines running.
vmkloader -uf
unloads the VMkernel even if there are virtual machines running.
