PURPOSE

Customer Direction for our Support of VMWare by Oracle Support Services

SCOPE & APPLICATION

---

For Customers running Oracle on VMWare. No limitation on use or distribution.

Support Status for VMWare

---

Oracle provides support of the Oracle Stack when running on a VMware virtual
machine in the following manner. If a problem arises and it is a known Oracle
issue, Oracle support will recommend the appropriate solution. If that solution
does not work, the issue will be referred back to VMware for support. If the
problem is determined to be an unknown Oracle issue when running on a VMware
virtual machine, and the issue cannot be reproduced on a physical system by Oracle support, the issue will be referred back to VMware for support. Oracle
and VMware have in place a joint customer support agreement to enable customer
support issues to be transferred between the two partners. In addition, all versions of RAC are not supported on VMWare by Oracle. Received on Tue Sep 19 2006 - 17:01:23 CDT
