Use the configure-core-count command to change the core count on the Oracle Database Appliance X6-2S or X6–2M.
You must always assign cores in multiples of two, with a minimum of two cores. If you change the CPU core count, then you can subsequently only increase the CPU core count.
- Log in as
root to the Oracle Database Appliance servers.
- Run the following to configure the number of CPU cores:
configure-core-count cpu_number
For example, run the following command to set the number of cores to 8:
# configure-core-count 8
- Restart the server to enable the additional cores.
After the system restarts, Oracle Database Appliance is reconfigured to run with the specified CPU core count.
