How To Discover Oracle VM for x86 Topology

This section describes how to discover the Oracle VM for x86 Topology.

ClosedPrerequisites
  • Ensure that there is shell connectivity to the Oracle VM Manager
  • Set up SSH protocol credentials. If a port is specified in the credentials, then credentials are applied only to destinations where the port is listening. Otherwise, credentials are skipped.
ClosedRun the Discovery

Note Oracle VM for x86 Topology Discovery can be performed in shallow or deep mode. To perform a shallow discovery, carry out steps 1-3 below. To perform a deep discovery, carry out all the steps below.

  1. Run the Range IPs by ICMP job (discovers reachable IPs).
  2. Run the Host Connection by Shell job (discovers the target host and shell connectivity to the host).

  3. Run the Host Applications by Shell job (discovers Oracle VM agents, the Oracle VM Manager, and the Oracle VM CLI listening port).

    Note If you want to perform only a shallow discovery, stop here and do not continue to the next step.

  4. Run the Oracle VM for x86 by Manager Main CLI job (discovers virtualization topology managed by the Oracle VM Manager).
