Deploy an I/O Domain

After you configure a domain, deploy it so that the OS is installed and the domain is available to use.

Note -  If the assistant fails to permit you to deploy a domain, check for possible issues. See Monitor SuperCluster Virtual Assistant Health (Administrators Only).
  1. Access the SuperCluster Virtual Assistant.

    See Log In to the SuperCluster Virtual Assistant.

  2. In the navigation panel, select I/O Domains.
  3. Select the domain you want to deploy and click Deploy.

    You can select one or more domains to deploy.

  4. Click Yes to deploy the domain.

    Deployments can take time. The length of time depends on the size and configuration of the domain. You can see the progress in the State column. See View I/O Domains.

    Click Refresh to watch the progress of the deployment. You can also monitor the deployment in the queue. See Monitor Current Activity.

  5. Verify that the I/O Domain is deployed.

    Check the state in the IO Domains page. This example shows that the deployed domain called west is Ready for Use.

  6. Ensure that the software is up to date with the latest SRUs and CIs.

    The assistant installs the OS, but might not install required SRU or Solaris CI software. For details about SRU and CI installation, log into My Oracle Support at https://support.oracle.com, and refer to these knowledge articles:

    • Oracle SuperCluster Supported Software Versions - All Hardware Types (Doc ID 1567979.1)

    • SuperCluster Critical Issues (Doc ID 1452277.1)

    • SuperCluster- Solaris 11 Support Repository Updates (SRU) and SuperCluster specific IDR Support Matrix (Doc ID 2086278.1).

  7. (Platinum Monitored Systems) Create platinum infrastructure services for each new domain you create.

    For instructions, log into https://support.oracle.com, and follow the instructions in the MOS knowledge article called How to Create Platinum Infrastructure Services SR (Doc ID 2086278.1). For the Engineered System and Target, choose SuperCluster. For problem type, choose Agent Management.
