Oracle I/O Domain Administration Guide

Plan Domain Users and Resource Allocations

By default, the SuperCluster Virtual Assistant is configured with one user called admin with administrative privileges.

If you choose, you can add additional users assigned with either a regular user role or the administrator role.

Regular users have access to the assistant and can manage their own recipes and domains. Users with the administrator role have full administrative privileges. See User Roles and Privileges.

Use this procedure with the user configuration worksheet. See Domain Users Worksheet.

1. Determine I/O Domain users and roles.

   Assign each new user these attributes:

   • Unique name and password.

   • Either administrator or user role.

2. Determine the resource allocation for each user.

   When you configure users, you can allocate resource limits in these ways:

   • Unconstrained – Do not specify a specific resource allocation. The user can use whatever resources are available.

   • Constrained – Specify upper resource limits. The user can use any available resources up to their specified resource allocation. These are the limits you can set:

     • 10 Gb interfaces

     • Cores

     • Memory

   The resources are not reserved for each user, nor is the limit a quota. Collectively, it is possible to allocate more resources than the system provides.

   Users then use the assistant to manage their virtualized resources.

   For planning purposes, you can use the I/O Domain User's Worksheet. See Domain Users Worksheet. Or go directly to the instructions for adding users. See Managing User Accounts.
