QuestionQ3

VerifiedCompute

You are migrating several legacy applications from on premises to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). The existing servers are already virtualized. However, you find that the current CentOS version does not match any Oracle-provided compute image.

How should you migrate the existing virtual server images to OCI?

Explanation

OCI custom-image import accepts externally created Linux disk images in QCOW2 or VMDK format stored in Object Storage. Imported Linux VMs can use emulated mode, which presents emulated devices for compatibility with legacy drivers; this is appropriate when an older CentOS image might not contain the paravirtualized drivers needed for higher-performance modes.
