Oracle Linux Network Support & VMs
810019Nov 2 2010 — edited Nov 2 2010Hi,
I'm interested in running a couple of Oracle Linux servers which will be doing KVM-based virtualization. Each server of course will run multiple VMs, preferably also with Oracle Linux. Are these VMs covered in the Oracle Linux Network Support agreement and can they get updates via ULN? I'm specifically NOT going to run Oracle VM, it'll be Oracle (Enterprise) Linux.
I'm seeing some conflicting information on this. The physical server will have 2 quad core CPUs, and if I read correctly when visiting the Unbreakable Linux Store it says ->
Pricing metric is per system. The system can have unlimited number of physical processors (sockets), unlimited number of cores and/or virtual guests.
So am I correct when I say that the physical server can be licensed for updates via ULN, and any virtual server running on this physical server is also covered for updates?
Thank you.
