Use the command oakcli configure vm to assign a virtual machine to a CPU pool.
Review the availability of CPU pools on nodes as part of your placement policy for virtual machines on Oracle Database Appliance Virtualized Platforms.
If your virtual machine is assigned to a specific CPU pool, and the virtual machine is allowed to fail over, then the virtual machine attempts to use the same CPU pool on the secondary node. If the CPU pool exists on the other node, but the CPU pool is a different size, then the performance of your virtual machine can be affected when it runs on the secondary node. If the assigned CPU pool does not exist on the secondary node, then the virtual machine cannot fail over.
Note:
Do not manage odaBaseCpuPool by using oakcli cpupool commands. Instead, use commands that configure ODA_BASE, as discussed in "How to Resize ODA_BASE."
Example 3-24 Example of Assigning a Virtual Machine to a CPU Pool on Oracle Database Appliance Virtualized Platform
This oakcli configure vm example pins the virtual machine named wintest to the CPU pool named winpool:
oakcli configure vm wintest -cpupool winpool
