Migrating Oracle Solaris to OCI using VirtualBox 7

in Oracle Solaris Virtualization (LDOM and ZONES) (MOSC)

A while ago Tanmay wrote a blog and an article on our oraclesolaris-contrib GitHub page on how you can use VirtualBox to migrate an Oracle Solaris VM to OCI. This was using the VirtualBox 6 GUI which can connect directly to OCI using your OCI credentials and he showed migrating an Oracle Solaris 11.4 SRU32 instance to OCI. 

The great thing about this is that you can take a VM that you've been working on on for example your laptop and once you define where you want to VM to go it will automatically upload the image into an OCI Bucket, create a Custom Image out of this, and finally start an instance using this Custom Image. 

Howdy, Stranger!
