There are several ways to assign the number of cores, memory, and network resources to an I/O Domain.
Use one of these approaches:
Use a default resource recipe – Use one of the provided large, medium, or small default recipes. To see the resources associated with default recipes, see Default Resource Recipes.
Use your own reusable recipe – Create your recipe. See Create a Resource Recipe.
Define the resources individually for each domain – During the domain creation process, you specify the amount of cores, memory, and 10GbE interfaces. There is no need to create a recipe prior to creating the I/O Domain. Note – If you want to assign a 10GbE NIC port pair to the I/O Domain, you must use this method. See Configure Port-Paired Networks (Administrators).
There are several ways to assign the network parameters such as name servers, time servers, and time zones..
Use one of these approaches:
Use the default network recipe – Use one provided. See View Recipes.
Use your own reusable network recipe – Create a network recipe. See Create a Network Recipe.
Define the network parameters individually for each domain – During the domain creation process, you specify the network parameters. There is no need to create or use a network recipe prior to creating the I/O Domain.
Database Domain – Perform the steps in Create a Database I/O Domain.
Database Zone Domain – Perform the steps in Create a Database Zone Domain.
Application Domain – Perform the steps in Create an Application I/O Domain.
