Exadata Database on Dedicated Infrastructure: Create and Manage Multiple Virtual Machines per Exadata System (MultiVM) and VM Cluster Node Subsetting

Slice Exadata resources into multiple virtual machines. Define up to 8 multiple virtual machines (VM) clusters on an Oracle Exadata Database Service on Dedicated Infrastructure, and specify how the overall system resources are allocated to them.

VM Cluster Node Subsetting enables you to allocate a subset of database servers to new and existing VM clusters to enable maximum flexibility in the allocation of compute (CPU, memory, local storage) resources.

Note: For existing Exadata Infrastructure, MultiVM will be enabled as part of your next scheduled maintenance run after MultiVM migration on December 20, 2022. All newly provisioned Exadata Infrastructure after the release of MVM on November 15, 2022, will have MultiVM enabled.
