Create a PaaS Infrastructure Zone

1. Choose Enterprise -> Cloud -> Middleware and Database Home.
2. Choose Middleware and Database Cloud -> Create PaaS Infrastructure Zone.
   

   The Create PaaS Infrastructure Zone wizard is displayed.

   1. Type a name and description for the zone, and specify the appropriate values for placement policy constraints based on the resources available to the members.

      The following example uses DevTestZone as a name, indicating that databases for development and test will be in this zone. In this example, the default placement policy constrains are used, but in a development or test area you might allow starting of new database instances (placement) on Oracle Solaris zones that are more heavily used than 80%.

      
      

      Click Next to continue. The Create PaaS Infrastructure Zone: Targets page is displayed.

   2. Next allocate servers (targets) to the PaaS infrastructure zones. In the case of Database Cloud for SPARC SuperCluster, these targets are Oracle Solaris zones. Click Add to search for available Oracle Solaris zones on the SuperCluster.
      

      Click on each Oracle Solaris zone you want to add as a target, then click Select.

   3. Specify the Named Credentials to be used for provisioning all the targets in this zone.

      Click the + icon to add new named credentials.

      The example uses the ORACLE credential created earlier.

      
      

      Click Next to continue.

   4. In the Create PaaS Infrastructure Zone: Roles window, click Add to select the roles that can access this PaaS Infrastructure Zone, and then highlight the appropriate role and click Select.

      The example uses the EM_SSA_DEVUSER_IT role created earlier.

      
      
   5. In the Create PaaS Infrastructure Zone: Review window, review the details and click Submit to create the zone.

      A message confirms that the PaaS Infrastructure Zone was successfully created. You will return to the Middleware and Database Cloud Home page.
