Supported Non-Oracle Virtualization and Partitioning Technologies for Oracle Fusion Middleware Including Pre-Acquisition BEA Product Releases


This page contains certification information on supported non-Oracle virtualization and partitioning technologies for Oracle Fusion Middleware and pre-acquisition BEA product releases.

Note: If an Operating System (OS) vendor releases a newer OS version, along with a complimenting virtualization/partitioning technology, the support of this new combination depends on the following:

  • The new OS should be certified by Oracle Fusion Middleware. For supported configurations information (e.g. details on OS version, processor, JDK, database, browser), please refer to Oracle Fusion Middleware Supported Systems Configurations.
  • The new OS plus the virtualization/partitioning solution is guaranteed by the appropriate hardware vendor to be backward compatible to the version listed in the tables below.

The following sections identify the supported non-Oracle virtualization/partitioning technologies for Oracle Fusion Middleware and pre-acquisition BEA product releases.

Note 3:

Support For Sun Solaris 10 In Multi-Zone Operation

Oracle WebLogic Server and Oracle Fusion Middleware components (for example, Oracle Portal and Oracle SOA Suite) that are running on top of WebLogic Server can run in multiple zones of a Sun Solaris 10 system, with some limitations:

  1. All WebLogic Server features are supported in Solaris global zones.
  2. All WebLogic Server features are supported in Solaris non-global zones when using Exclusive-IP in the non-global zones.
  3. All WebLogic Server features except Whole Server Migration (automated or manual) are supported in non-global zones when using Shared-IP in the non-global zones. WebLogic Server Whole Server Migration is only supported in non-global zones when using Exclusive-IP in the non-global zones. For additional information on this topic refer to My Oracle Support Doc ID 976795.1 in http://support.oracle.com.

Oracle Support Policy For VMware

For Oracle's support policy on Oracle products running on VMware, refer to My Oracle Support Doc ID 249212.1 in http://support.oracle.com.
