After creating a top-level group for the Exalogic machine, you can create a sub-group for the InfiniBand switches and gateways (leaf switches and spine switches), which are included in the Exalogic machine.
You can create a sub-group for these InfiniBand switches as follows:
On the right navigation pane named Actions, click Create Group under Organize. The Configure/Modify Group screen is displayed.
In the Configure Group screen, in the Group Name field, enter a name for the new Exalogic group. For example, enter IBswitches
. Enter a description in the Description field. Select the Inside a user-defined Group/Subgroup option as Location. In the Group Selection Panel, select the Exalogic
top-level group that you created in Creating the Exalogic Top-Level Group. The Configure Group screen should be similar to Figure 17-8.

After entering the sub-group information and selecting the group location, click Next. The Summary screen is displayed.
On the Summary screen, click Finish. The IBswitches
sub-group is created under the Exalogic
group.
