Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center as a Management Tool for Virtualization [30636]
Managing Server Virtualization Technologies Throughout their Lifecycle from One GUI

With Ops Center, it's possible to manage the complete lifecycle of a system, Freymann writes, so why not install Oracle VM Server for x86 on the bare-metal system using Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center. With Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center users can group servers of compatible architecture together, assign them shared storage where virtualized guests can run, define the type of virtualization technology to be used, and then define a server pool.
