Solaris OS & Oracle 19c Database | Nutanix Community
Skip to main content

Customer is currently running OVM on Sparc hardware. Guest OS on OVM is Solaris and Oracle Database runs on  Solaris.

Nuatnix AHV will support Solaris?

there is a way to move to Nutanix AHV and what could be the best guest OS suitable – Oracle Linux or one of the other Oracle certified guest OS’s .

Here is a link to supported environments: https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/solutions/details?targetId=BP-2049-Nutanix-Volumes:top-supported-client-environments.html (support portal login required). Solaris 11 is supported on AOS 5.02 and 5.1


there is a chance that Solaris be supported on x86_64 architecture but certainly not on sparc. 

so It might be a migration anway to a new environment.
