The supported installation platforms for the SGD Enhancement Module are supported on a Type 1 (bare
metal) hypervisor or a Type 2 (hosted) hypervisor, for example Oracle VM VirtualBox, VMWare, or Oracle
VM Server for SPARC (previously called Sun Logical Domains or LDoms).
Installation in zones is supported for Oracle Solaris platforms. SGD can be installed in the global zone,
or in one or more non-global zones. Installation in both the global zone and a non-global zone is not
