Resizing of disk image formats from Oracle, VDI (VirtualBox disk image), and Microsoft, VHD (Virtual PC hard disk) 4.1 Jul 19, 2011: Windows Aero support (experimental) Virtual machine cloning; 4.2 Sep 13, 2012: Virtual machine groups – allows management of a group of virtual machines as a single unit (power them on or off, take snapshots, etc.)
Under agreement with Connectix, Innotek GmbH (makers of VirtualBox, now part of Oracle) ported version 5.0 to run on an OS/2 host. [6] This version also included guest extensions (VM additions) for OS/2 guests, which could run on Windows, OS/2 or Mac OS X hosts using Virtual PC versions 5, 6 or 7.

Third-party software that ISVs have certified to run on Oracle Linux and Oracle VM can be found in this catalog Oracle/Sun servers with x86-64 processors can be configured to ship with Oracle Linux. Oracle Linux is available on Amazon EC2 as an Amazon Machine Image , and on Microsoft Windows Azure as a VM Image.
The virtual machine additions in older VPC versions and the virtual machine integration features in Windows Virtual PC contain precompact ISO images for the first step in supported guest systems. [13] Third-party products also use VHD file format. Oracle VirtualBox, part of Sun xVM line of Sun Microsystems supports VHD in
As with KQEMU, VirtualBox runs nearly all guest code natively on the host via the VMM (Virtual Machine Manager) and uses the re-compiler only as a fallback mechanism – for example, when guest code executes in real mode. [22] In addition, VirtualBox did a lot of code analysis and patching using a built-in disassembler to minimize recompilation.
Hyper-V is a native hypervisor developed by Microsoft; it can create virtual machines on x86-64 systems running Windows. [1] It is included in Pro and Enterprise editions of Windows NT (since Windows 8) as an optional feature to be manually enabled. [2]
