17.9.1 Prerequisites

Before grouping Exalogic-specific managed assets, ensure that all Exalogic-specific hardware assets, such as compute nodes, storage appliance, and network switches are discovered and managed. However, you can extend or modify the groups at any time. For more information, see Discovering and Managing Exalogic Machine Hardware.

In addition, verify that all Exalogic-specific assets are listed under Managed Assets, as shown in the example (Figure 17-9).
