About Managing Virtual Machine Templates
Import and configure virtual machine templates as the source for the virtual machines
deployed on Oracle Database Appliance Virtualized Platform.
If you have created shared repositories, then import templates into one of those
shared repositories. If you have not created shared repositories, then import templates
into the local repository on one of the local nodes.
You can import assemblies that contain one or more templates. When you import a
template or assembly into a shared repository, select a node that you want to perform
the operation. Select the node carefully to avoid overloading the node. After you create
the repository, the repository becomes available to both nodes, regardless of which
node performs the import.
Templates imported into local nodes use the repository name supplied in the import
command to identify the node that completes the import, and that provides the
storage. On Node 0, the local repository is named
odarepo1
and on Node 1, the local
repository is named
odarepo2.
If you want to import a template to both local
repositories, then you must provide a different template name when you import the
template into the second node.
Note:
You cannot create or clone templates directly on Oracle Database Appliance
Virtualized Platform, you must use the Oracle VM templates that are
available in Oracle Software Delivery.
If you import an assembly that contains more than one template, then the command
automatically modifies the template name that you provide, so that all template names
remain unique. The first template you import has the number "1" appended to the
name. The second template as the number "2" appended, and additional templates
have 3, 4, 5 and so on appended in sequence.
After you import a virtual machine template, you can customize the template using
OAKCLI commands.
