Manages jobs in the Oracle VM environment. Performs load balancing of virtual machines in server pools. Imports, clones and migrates virtual machines. This includes creating virtual machines from either installation media or from templates, starting, logging in, shutting down, and deleting virtual machines. Manages resources, including ISO files, virtual machine templates, virtual machine images, and virtual machine assemblies. Manages the physical Oracle VM Servers and can, for example, reboot or rediscover the physical hardware.Ĭreates and manages Oracle VM Server logical networks, for example, NIC port bonding, and configuring VLAN networks.Ĭreates and manages storage repositories. Oracle VM Manager provides the following main capabilities: This section gives an overview of the Oracle VM Manager features used to manage Oracle VM Servers, virtual machines, storage repositories, networks, and resources. The Linux kernel is run as dom0 to manage one or more domU virtual machines, each of which could be Linux, Oracle Solaris, or Microsoft Windows. It also includes a Linux kernel with support for a broad array of devices, file systems, and software RAID volume management. Oracle VM Server is based upon an updated version of the underlying Xen hypervisor technology, and includes Oracle VM Agent. At least one Oracle VM Server is required, but several are needed to take advantage of clustering. Oracle VM Server : A managed virtualization environment providing a lightweight, secure, server platform which runs virtual machines. Import virtual machines created with Oracle VM or another solution for server virtualization

Manage virtual machines, including powering on and off, deleting, and live migrating Use Oracle VM Manager to:Ĭonfigure and manage resources such as virtual machine images, virtual machine templates, assemblies, and installation mediaĬreate virtual machines from installation media, a virtual machine template, an assembly, or a virtual machine image The GUI is an Application Development Framework (ADF) web application you use simply through your browser to manage Oracle VM Servers, virtual machines, and resources.

Oracle VM Manager: Provides the command line interface or shell, as well as the graphical user interface (GUI). Description of 'Figure 2-1 Oracle VM Architecture'
