Oracle VM Manager: Editing Server Pool Information

We can make several changes to the Server Pool such as changing the Server Pool name, managing servers, and adding or removing users. Let's start by editing the Server Pool:

To select our Avastu Pool we can click on the Servers and Users link and edit the Servers and Users. Both of those will be tackled later in this chapter.

For instance, if we take a quick look at our Oracle Utility, Server Pool Master, and Oracle VM Server, then we can see all of the properties of the machine here:

Searching and restoring Server Pools

This too isn't much of a trouble but still a very handy tool when we are in search for machines or other resources that would be available, or even Server Pools if we are in a large Data Center which is firing up Oracle VMs by the second (A sure dream for many Oracle VM enthusiasts, I guess). All we have to do is a wildcard entry appended with a % sign and we will have all of the machines displayed on the screen.

Restoring a Server Pool

If the Server Pool data on the Server Pool Master is damaged or corrupted, we can restore this data by synchronizing it with the data from the Oracle VM Manager database, an Oracle 11g Xpress Database.

To restore, we need to click on the Restore button and we are done.

When you restore a Server Pool, all of the data stored in the Server Pool Master will be deleted, and will be synchronized with the latest information from the Oracle VM Manager database.
