Oracle VM is a virtualization environment platform that enables users to create and manage virtual machines (VMs). These virtual machines exist on the same physical server but behave like independent physical servers. Each virtual machine created with Oracle VM has its own virtual CPUs, operating system, network interfaces, and storage.
Your server is compatible for use with Oracle VM 2.2.1. See http://www.oracle.com/goto/x6275m2 for the latest list of supported operating systems.
Note - If you purchased a pre-installed version of Oracle VM on an FMod. Follow the instructions in Configuring a Pre-Installed OS in Sun Blade X6275 M2 Server Module Installation Guide.
Oracle VM includes the following components:
Oracle VM Manager: A web application that acts as the user interface for creating and managing your virtual machines. This includes virtual machine creation (including templates), life cycle management (deploying, migrating and deleting), and resource management (ISO files, templates, and shared storage resources).
Oracle VM Server: A lightweight, secure virtualization environment based on Xen hypervisor used to run virtual machines and the Oracle VM agent.
Oracle VM Agent: Installed on Oracle VM Server, it communicates with Oracle VM Manager and includes a Web Services API for managing the Oracle VM Server, server pools, and resources.
The following list provides an outline of the installation, and provides links to topics containing detailed instructions.
