Preinstalled and preconfigured.
Use the Oracle VM Server software to create virtual servers called
logical domains. Logical domains run their own independent OS and
use a defined portion of the available server resources. Each
logical domain is created, destroyed, reconfigured, and rebooted
independently. You can virtualize resources and define network,
storage, and other I/O devices as services that are shared between
domains.
If you want to remove the preinstalled virtualization software and
install other software, the following virtualization software is

Oracle System Assistant
|
You can choose to have Oracle System Assistant installed as a
factory-installed option for Oracle x86 servers. Oracle System
Assistant is the preferred application for setting up the system
software and firmware.
This tool is an embedded, task-based compute node provisioning
tool that can perform initial compute node setup and maintenance for
some Oracle x86 servers. Using Oracle System Assistant, you can
install a supported OS, update the compute node to the latest
software release, and configure hardware.
The compute node contains an internal USB flash drive that contains Oracle System Assistant.
