Virtualization stance
10
• Centricity Group Management is supported in a virtual; (LPAR) environment
• Analyzer is supported in a virtual server environment
• GE Healthcare will support the SQL, Cognos, and the Analyzer deliverables just as we do on a stand alone server
• GE Healthcare does not support the virtual environment or make configuration recommendations for virtual environments
• Issues that point to resource bottleneck that can not be duplicated on a stand alone server - timeouts, waits, server unresponsiveness – must be solved by the owner of the virtual configuration
