The following configuration is used as an example throughout this exercise:
Oracle SuperCluster M7 with a single compute node, with Exadata Storage Servers with High Capacity disks.
The single compute node with two PDomains, or an R1 PDomain configuration.
Four CMIOUs in each PDomain, or an R1-4 PDomain configuration.
The U4-4 LDom configuration (4 LDoms) will be set up on both PDomains in Oracle SuperCluster M7.
The following LDom types will be assigned to each LDom in both PDomains:
LDom 1: Database Domain with 4 zones
LDom 2: Database Domain (without zones)
LDom 3: Solaris 11 Application Domain
LDom 4: Root Domain
5 RAC instances set up on the Oracle SuperCluster M7:
One RAC instance for each zone on the Database Domains with zones (4 RAC instances total for the zones)
One RAC instance for the two Database Domains (without zones)
For each RAC instance, the example configuration assumes that you have zones within the Database Domain with zones, or Database Domains (without zones), that reside on different PDomains. So for the zones on Database Domains with zones for the Oracle SuperCluster M7, these zones are members of the first RAC instance:
First zone in the Database Domain with zones in the first PDomain
First zone in the Database Domain with zones in the second PDomain
Throughout these procedures, it is assumed that this configuration was created during your initial installation, and that you are adding zones to the existing Database Domains with zones.
