Installing Oracle VM
Oracle VM is a virtualization environment platform that enables users to create and manage
virtual machines (VMs). These VMs 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.
Oracle VM is comprised of the following components:
■
Oracle VM Server: A lightweight, secure virtualization environment based on Xen
hypervisor, and 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. This is included in the Oracle VM Manager installation.
■
Oracle VM Manager: A web application which 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).
The following table provides an outline of the Oracle VM installation:
