Complete the following checklist to ensure that the network specification requirements are met. For information about IP addresses, see Understand Network Requirements and Configuration.
Note:
If you are deploying multiple Exalogic machines that will be connected to form a single system, then contact your Oracle representative for instructions.
By default, there is one default InfiniBand partition at the Exalogic machine level. All compute nodes in the Exalogic machine are members of the default InfiniBand partition. The most common model for application isolation involves multiple IP subnetting, in which the most mission-critical applications are assigned their own IP subnets layered above the default IPoIB link. In this model, some subnets may also contain applications that have less stringent or otherwise different resource requirements.

|
Have you received the site-specific installation template from your Oracle technical representative? |

|
Did you review the installation template and consult with your Oracle technical representative regarding site-specific changes, if any? |

|
Did you verify the IP addresses in the installation template are currently not in use? |
||||
|
Have you performed the required configuration within your network infrastructure to allow the Exalogic machine to use the IP addresses specified in the template? |
