how to integrate oracle vm manager to oracle vm server

Integrate oracle vm manager to oracle vm server 3.3.1

Use Oracle VM Manager to manage Oracle VM Servers. Do not manage Oracle VM Servers directly using the Oracle VM Server command line unless directed to do so by a My Oracle Support document, or by Oracle Support.

A server pool must contain at least one Oracle VM Server. After installing an Oracle VM Server, you must discover it in Oracle VM Manager before it can be added to a server pool.

Before you discover Oracle VM Servers and add them to a server pool, you must:

• Identify the IP address of the Oracle VM Server(s). If you installed Oracle VM Server with a static IP address (recommended), this is the IP address you use. If you installed Oracle VM Server with a dynamic IP address, log onto the Oracle VM Server and determine the IP address.
• Identify the password to access the Oracle VM Agent installed on the Oracle VM Server.

Discovering Oracle VM Servers

When an Oracle VM Server is installed and starts up, it listens for Oracle VM Manager server pool discovery events. Before you can add an Oracle VM Server to a server pool, it must first be discovered.

To discover an Oracle VM Server:

Click the Servers and VMs tab.

Click Discover Servers  in the toolbar. The Discover Servers dialog box is displayed.

Note:- You can also use the Discover Servers... subtab in the Tools and Resources tab to discover Oracle VM Servers. The fields in that screen are identical to those discussed in this procedure.

Enter information about the Oracle VM Server(s) to be discovered:

Oracle VM Agent Port: The port on which the Oracle VM Agent is listening. This is most likely the default port8899.

Oracle VM Agent Password: The password to connect to the Oracle VM Agent. The password must be the same on all Oracle VM Servers.

IP Addresses/DNS Hostnames: Enter the IP address(es), IP ranges or DNS hostnames of the Oracle VM Server(s) to be discovered. You can paste a list of multiple IP addresses or multiple DNS hostnames. If you enter an IP range it must be in the format 192.168.10.2-10. For example, if you enter 192.168.10.2-4 Oracle VM Manager will discover 192.168.10.2, 192.168.10.3 and 192.168.10.4. IP addresses, IP ranges and DNS host names must be entered on separate lines.

Click OK.

The Oracle VM Servers are discovered and added to the Unassigned Servers folder. The newly discovered Oracle VM Server contains some basic information about itself, and about any immediate connectivity to a shared SAN, but it is considered to be in an unconfigured state. The Oracle VM Server cannot be used to perform any virtual machine, or active cluster operations. Physical network and storage configuration can be performed, and any subsequent storage discovery operations may also be performed.

When an Oracle VM Server is discovered, it is configured to use the Oracle VM Manager host computer as the Network Time Protocol (NTP) time source. This ensures that all Oracle VM Servers are in sync with each other in the Oracle VM Manager environment.

The Utilization % column in the Servers perspective in the management pane does not report the utilization statistics of an Oracle VM Server that is in the Unassigned Servers folder. This field does not report utilization statistics unless an Oracle VM Server is included in a server pool.

Note:-

Discovered Oracle VM Servers do not use a Virtual IP address until they are properly configured by being included in a server pool.

When an Oracle VM Server has been discovered, it can be added to a server pool.

Adding an Oracle VM Server to a server pool.
