Specify how a qvm process instance responds if any component on
which it depends or a vdev isn't safety-certified
Synopsis:
safety none|warn|required
Options:
Possible values are:
- none
- Ignore the presence of a non-safety component and just run.
- warn
- If any component isn't safety-certified, issue a warning, and run.
- required
- If a component isn't safety-certified, issue an error message and move to
the DSS (see “Design Safe States” in the
“QNX Hypervisor: Protection Features” chapter).
Description:
The default behaviors for different QNX hypervisors are as follows:
- QNX Hypervisor for Safety (QHS) — required
- QNX Hypervisor — none
Use the safety option to specify how each qvm
process instance in your system responds to the presence of uncertified vdevs and
components.
Note: This option is really intended for the QNX Hypervisor for Safety.
Running a safety-certified guest on a non-safety hypervisor host is not recommended.
