Oracle VM Agent Deployment

D.2 Oracle VM Agent Deployment

Oracle VM Manager communicates with Oracle VM Agent to perform management of virtual machines and server pools. There are a number of configuration options you can use when deploying Oracle VM.

■The Server Pool Master, Utility Server and Virtual Machine Server can be on the same computer.

■The Server Pool Master and Utility Server can be on the same computer, and the Virtual Machine Server can be on another computer.

■All three server agent components can be on separate computers.

Figure D–2, "Oracle VM deployment" shows the deployment options for managing Oracle VM servers.

Figure D–2 Oracle VM deployment

A server pool consists of one or more physical servers, and represents a logical view of the storage where the guests reside.

In Figure D–2, "Oracle VM deployment", Server Pool 3 is deployed on individual servers, while in Server Pool 1, all of the three agents are deployed on a single server. Server Pool 2 shows a more typical deployment. The Server Pool Master and Utility Server are on one computer, and the Virtual Machine Server(s) are on another, or multiple other computers. This improves overall performance as guests running on the
