Does DataMiner support all the below virtualization technologies to deploy DataMiner nodes or are there any limitations?
- VMWare
- Red Hat Virtualization (KVM)
- Citrix (XEN)
- Oracle VM (XEN)
- Hyper-V
Hi Thomas,
I didn't verify each specific technology as mentioned by you but in general any type of type 1 or type 2 hypervisor which is capable of hosting the operating system as specified in our minimum system requirements documentation is expected to be compatible to host DataMiner compute / data nodes.
For an operational environment we would however advise to choose for a type 1 hypervisor as these are more efficient in terms of hardware resource access towards the hosted virtual machine clients.
Please also read the following important article which highlights all of the important specifications to bear in mind when deploying a DataMiner system on a virtualized environment.
Hope this helps!
