Preinstalled Oracle VM Image BIOS Boot
Mode Restriction
The Oracle VM Server software image is preinstalled on the server in the Legacy
BIOS Boot Mode. Therefore, to used the preinstalled image, you must boot the server
in the Legacy BIOS Boot Mode (the default). If you boot the server in the UEFI BIOS
Boot Mode, the server will not boot the Oracle VM preinstalled image and it cannot
be used. Oracle VM does not support UEFI BIOS. If you want to switch to UEFI BIOS
Boot Mode then you must install an operating system that supports UEFI BIOS.
Preinstalled Oracle VM Server and
Oracle VM Manager Compatibility
Requirements
If you use the Oracle VM Server software that is preinstalled on your system, you
must ensure that it is compatible with the version of Oracle VM Manager that you
use to manage your Oracle VM infrastructure. If necessary to achieve compatibility,
upgrade your Oracle VM Server or Oracle VM Manager so that they are the same
version.
For information about upgrading the Oracle VM Manager software, see the Oracle
VM Installation and Upgrade Guide. The Oracle VM documentation is available at:
