We had some problems with OVM agents few years ago(we had to change IP addresses of ovm servers and VMs on them, but couldn't connect to agents after that) , and only OVM developers from oracle could find and troubleshoot those 2 bugs,so ovm is really difficult for troubleshooting and I'd try to avoid to use ovm too, but unfortunately oracle allows to reduce license costs with hard partitioning on ovm only, not on VMware, VirtualBox, hyperv, etc. Ovm is so not stable that every time I reconfigure ovm, I'm affraid it can fail and stop working...
