To configure an onQ Appliance’s hypervisor settings:

Your onQ Appliance’s hypervisor is XenServer. The onQ Appliance ships with the hypervisor information pre‑configured.

The hypervisor name is based on a Quorum naming convention: Hyper-Q-CustomerName-ApplianceType. This naming convention provides you the best customer support possible because it communicates the onQ Appliance’s role and your topology.

Quorum recommends that you retain the pre‑configured hypervisor name; however, Quorum recognizes that your company might have its own naming conventions. Before you change the hypervisor’s name, contact Quorum Support with your naming convention requirements so that we can rename the hypervisor. without losing sight of the relationships between onQ Appliances.
