"Oracle VM Manager", which is the user interface of the "Oracle VM" server environment virtualization software,
can provision the ETERNUS DX.
"ETERNUS Oracle VM Storage Connect Plug-in" is required to use this function.
The Oracle VM Storage Connect framework enables Oracle VM Manager to directly use the resources and
functions of the ETERNUS DX in an Oracle VM environment. Native storage services such as Logical Unit Number
(LUN) creation, deletion, expansion, and snapshots are supported.
