System
Virtualization Support
System virtualization is a technology that enables multiple operating
system (OS) instances to execute independently on shared hardware. Functionally,
software deployed to an OS hosted in a virtualized environment is generally
unaware that the underlying platform has been virtualized. Sun performs testing
of its Sun Java System products on select system virtualization and OS combinations
to help validate that the Sun Java System products continue to function on
properly sized and configured virtualized environments as they do on non-virtualized
systems. For information about Sun support for Sun Java System products in
virtualized environments, see http://docs.sun.com/doc/820–4651.
