Oracle VM Manager Web Services API (WS-API): Manage and monitor the components of your virtual infrastructure with agility

Oracle VM Manager Web Services API (WS-API)

Oracle VM Manager Web Services API Implementation

Oracle VM Manager gives you a Web Services application programming interface so that you could integrate third-party software and products to work with Oracle VM Manager easily and quickly.  Some of the things that you could do with Oracle VM Manager via this API are adding servers, creating virtual machines and creating a server pool.

Oracle VM Manager serves as the administration platform for all of your Oracle VM Servers that are connected on your network.  Oracle VM Manager can help you manage virtual servers, virtual machines and the server pool.  An API gives a complete set of interface to Oracle VM Manager, and that API is accessed via the Oracle VM Manager Web services API through the SOAP protocol.

The Oracle VM Manager Web services API gives you all the operations that are needed for you to manage and monitor the components of your virtual infrastructure such as virtual machines, networks, storage, virtual servers, server pools and the likes.
