Systems
Note
This page is only visible to you if you have administrator rights.
System types describe what kind of machine a Machine object represents (bare metal, a specific virtualization platform, an LPAR, …) and which capabilities that implies. This page lists the configured system types.
Name: The system type’s name.
Virtual: Whether machines of this type are virtual machines (and may therefore have a hypervisor).
Administrative: Whether machines of this type are administrative (excluded from installation/reservation).
Editing a system type also lets you set whether it may serve as a dedicated VM host (“Allow Hypervisor”) or may have a BMC assigned (“Allow BMC”). See Systems and Enclosures for background.
