Hardware and Software Requirements
Oracle iPlanet Web Proxy Server 4.0.25 Release Notes 1-3
1.4.2 System Virtualization Support
System virtualization is a technology that enables multiple operating system (OS)
instances to execute independently on shared hardware. Functionally, software
deployed to an OS hosted in a virtualized environment is generally unaware that the
underlying platform has been virtualized. Oracle performs testing of its products on
select system virtualization and OS combinations to help validate that Oracle products
continue to function on properly sized and configured virtualized environments as
they do on non-virtualized systems.
For information about support for Oracle products in virtualized environments, see:
