The Installation option installs MySQL Enterprise Edition, MySQL Enterprise Edition Backup, Oracle WebLogic Server, Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF), Java, and Oracle VM Manager on the local system. The following example shows the installation process.
If you have an existing MySQL installation on the system where you intend to install Oracle VM Manager you must backup your databases and uninstall it. Oracle VM Manager requires exclusive use of MySQL due to the specific tuning parameters that it applies to the configuration. Oracle VM Manager uses MySQL Enterprise Edition on a non-standard port. The licensing of the MySQL Enterprise Edition provided with Oracle VM Manager grants exclusive use to Oracle VM. You must not use the MySQL server provided for any other purpose. If MySQL is installed as a result of a previous installation of Oracle VM Manager the installation prompts you to provide the hostname, root password and port number that was used in the previous installation.

Enter a password for all logins used during the installation: Enter a password for all logins used during the installation (confirm):
A system-wide password is required during installation. This password is used for all components used by Oracle VM Manager including MySQL, Oracle WebLogic and the Oracle VM Manager application itself. Note that the password should at least adhere to the requirements for an Oracle WebLogic password as set out below:
Be between 8 and 16 characters in length.

Enter the fully qualified domain name or IP address of the host where you are installing Oracle VM Manager. This is used to generate the self-signed SSL certificate that is used by Oracle VM Manager to encrypt HTTPS communications. The domain name must either match the domain name returned when running the hostname -f command on your system, or must match a valid IP address for the host. The installer validates the IP address or hostname entered here by attempting to ping the entry before proceeding with the installation. If the ping fails, the installer prompts to re-enter a valid domain name or IP address. It is not possible to enter 'localhost' or '127.0.0.1' as a valid hostname.
