Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager Hard Partitioning Available?

Hi,

Any of you have news about Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager hard partitioning feature?

On Oracle Virtualization Blog seems this is not officially supported right now.

Hi,

Are you looking for pinning of vcpu? If yes you can run the below command :

To check the current configuration:
#virsh --readonly vcpuinfo <Domain Name>

To pin the vcpu

#virsh vcpupin <Domain Name> --vcpu < cpu no you want to pin to> --live

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Harshita

Hi,

Yes i'm looking for this. Thank you.
So technically is possible but is officially recognized by Oracle as Hard Partitioning?

Hi,

Yes, it should be added later in the official document as well.
But this is tested internally and you can go ahead with the same.

Harshita.

Hi Daniele

Oracle has certified hard partitioning and document updated here: https://www.oracle.com/assets/partitioning-070609.pdf

Oracle generated hard partitioning document for Linux KVM here: https://www.oracle.com/a/ocom/docs/linux/ol-kvm-hard-partitioning.pdf

Using the virsh commands noted earlier is NOT a supported method to pin CPUs for Hard Partitioning
