Oracle DB Support on VMware
• Oracle supports their application and database on VMware
Support Position for Oracle Products Running on VMware Virtualized Environments [ID 249212.1]
• Oracle does not certify their products on VMware, only on Oracle VM
• An Oracle request to recreate problem on “bare metal” is the same point in the support esculation process for Oracle VM & VMware, etc.
• VMware offers a service to take first call support for Oracle
https://vmware.com/support/policies/oracle-support.html
Get the facts!
The vast majority of customers consolidating Oracle Database do so on VMware.
