The Oracle VM Utilities are command line scripts used to execute certain basic operations on your Oracle VM environment. These utilities make a connection to the Oracle VM Manager host server, using the server host name and an administrative user name and password. After authentication, commands can be submitted to Oracle VM Manager from the command line.
The Oracle VM Utilities are:
ovm_servercontrol: command line script to perform administrative operations on a physical Oracle VM Server
ovm_vmcontrol: command line script to perform administrative operations on a virtual machine
ovm_vmdisks: command line script to list virtual and raw physical disks attached to a virtual machine in order to facilitate backup
ovm_vmmessage: command line script to send and retrieve messages in the form of key/value pairs to and from a running virtual machine
ovm_poolcontrol: command line script to perform administrative operations on a pool of Oracle VM Servers
ovm_repocontrol: command line script to retrieve information about storage repositories and refresh their contents
Command line parameters and options, along with several examples, can be found in Chapter 2, Using the Oracle VM Utilities
Certain functions of the Oracle VM Utilities are restricted to version 3.1 and higher. If you attempt to execute an incompatible script on Oracle VM version 3.0, a warning message will be displayed to inform you that the feature is not supported.
