14 Oracle Database Appliance Command-Line Interface

The command-line interface has different classes of tools to manage Oracle Database Appliance.

About Oracle Database Appliance Command-Line Interface

Three classes of tools are available to perform deployment, lifecycle management, and system administration on Oracle Database Appliance.

The command-line interface (CLI) is an alternative to Oracle Database Appliance Web Console for some appliance configuration and patching tasks, database management, and job activity.

Oracle Database Appliance uses a role-based command-line interface. Use the odacli commands to perform lifecycle management tasks and the odaadmcli commands to perform storage and hardware monitoring maintenance. Many tasks related to managing Oracle Databases are also required with databases on Oracle Database Appliance. Tasks common to Oracle Database generally are described in the Oracle Database documentation library. However, to simplify tasks, use the Oracle Database Appliance command-line interface. The odacli and odaadmcliutilities combine the capabilities of the SYS database administrator role and the operating system Superuser (root user). Always perform administrative tasks using the Oracle Database Appliance Web Console or CLI utilities.

The following classes of commands are available:

  • Deployment and Configuration: Use the deployment and configuration commands as part of the initial deployment of the appliance and to configure CPU cores.

  • Lifecycle management: Use odacli commands to perform database and system administration tasks for the appliance. The odacli commands are the primary interface to perform life cycle activities for the appliance.

  • Administration: Use odaadmcli commands to perform hardware administration tasks for the appliance. The odaadmcli commands are the interface for in-frequent administration activities needed to manage appliance hardware components, storage, and VLAN.

You can perform the following deployment and configuration tasks:

  • Configure the first network in the appliance

  • Unzip and copy the Oracle Database Appliance software to the correct locations

  • Set the number of CPU Cores for the system

You can perform the following appliance lifecycle tasks with odacli commands:

  • Create and describe the appliance

  • Create, list, describe, and delete databases

  • Create, list, describe, and delete Oracle Database Homes

  • Create, list, and describe the networks

  • List and describe the jobs

You can perform the following appliance administration tasks with odaadmcli commands:

  • Show storage, disks, diskgroups, and controllers

  • Display storage diagnostics for disks and NVM Express (NVMes)

  • Locate disks

  • Show server, memory, processor, power, cooling, and network details

Depending on your version of Oracle Appliance Manager and your hardware, some of the odacli commands may not be available to you. To see which commands are supported on your version of Oracle Appliance Manager and your hardware, run the odacli help command: odacli -h.

Command-Line Interface Syntax

The command-line interface commands and parameters are case-sensitive.

An odacli or odaadmclicommand uses the following command syntax:

odacli command [options]
  • command is an action you want to perform on the appliance. For example: odacli list-networks or odacli describe-jobs.

  • options are optional parts of the odacli command. Options can consist of one or more options that extend the use of the odacli command carried out on an object. Options include additional information about the action that you want to perform on the object. Option names are preceded with a dash. Some options require the name of an object for the command to perform the action that you want to carry out. If an option is preceded with an * (asterisk), this information is required to submit the command. When appending -j to the odacli command, the output is returned in JSON format. The help option (-h) is an option that is available with almost all commands. When you include the -h option, you can obtain additional information about the command that you want to perform.

Managing ODACLI Privileges and Security with SUDO

Oracle Appliance Manager command-line utility requires root system privileges for most administration actions. You may want to use SUDO as part of your system auditing and security policy.

For most tasks, Oracle recommends that you log in as root to use the Oracle Appliance Manager command-line interface on Oracle Database Appliance. If you are not logged in as root, then you cannot carry out most actions on the appliance. For example, if you are not logged in as root, then you can view storage information, but you cannot modify the storage.

Allowing Root User Access Using SUDO

In environments where system administration is handled by a different group than database administration, or where security is a significant concern, you may want to limit access to the root user account and password. SUDO enables system administrators to grant certain users (or groups of users) the ability to run commands as root, while logging all commands and arguments as part of your security and compliance protocol.

A SUDO security policy is configured by using the file /etc/sudoers. Within the sudoers file, you can configure groups of users and sets of commands to simplify and audit server administration with SUDO commands.

Caution:

Configuring SUDO to allow a user to perform any operation is equivalent to giving that user root privileges. Consider carefully if this is appropriate for your security needs.

See Also:

The SUDO man pages for more information about configuring and using SUDO:

http://www.sudo.ws/sudo.html

Example 14-2 SUDO Example 1: Allow a User to Perform Any ODACLI Operation

This example shows how to configure SUDO to enable a user to perform any ODACLI operation. You do this by adding lines to the commands section in the /etc/sudoers file:

## The commands section may have other options added to it.
##
Cmnd_Alias ODACLI_CMDS=/opt/oracle/oak/bin/odacli *
jdoe ALL = ODACLI_CMDS

In this example, the user name is jdoe. The file parameter setting ALL= ODACLI_CMDS grants the user jdoe permission to run all odacli commands that are defined by the command alias ODACLI_CMDS. After configuration, you can copy one sudoers file to multiple hosts. You can also create different rules on each host.

Note:

Before database creation, you must set up user equivalency with SSH for the root user on each server. If you do not set up user equivalency and configure SSH on each server, then you are prompted to provide the root password for each server during database creation.

After you configure the sudoer file with the user, the user jdoe can run the set of odacli commands configured with the command alias ODACLI_CMDS. For example:

$ sudo odacli create database -db newdb

INFO: 2015-08-05 14:40:55: Look at the logfile  '/opt/oracle/oak/log/scaoda1011/tools/12.1.2.4.0/createdb_newdb_91715.log' for more details

INFO: 2015-08-05 14:40:59: Database parameter file is not provided. Will be using default parameters for DB creation
Please enter the 'SYSASM'  password :

INFO: 2015-08-05 14:41:10: Installing a new home: OraDb12102_home3 at /u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0.2/dbhome_3

Please select one of the following for Database type  [1 .. 3]:
1    => OLTP 
2    => DSS 
3    => In-Memory

Example 14-3 SUDO Example 2: Allow a User to Perform Only Selected ODACLI Operations

To configure SUDO to allow a user to perform only selected ODACLI operations, add lines to the commands section in the /etc/sudoers file as follows:

## DCS commands for oracle user 
Cmnd_Alias DCSCMDS = /opt/oracle/dcs/bin/odacli describe-appliance
oracle  ALL=       DCSCMDS
$ sudo /opt/oracle/dcs/bin/odacli describe-appliance

In this example, the user jdoe2 tries to run the sudo odacli list-databases command, which is not part of the set of commands that is configured for that user. SUDO prevents jdoe2 from running the command.

[jdoe2@servernode1 ~]$ sudo /opt/oracle/oak/bin/odacli list-databases

Sorry, user jdoe2 is not allowed to execute '/opt/oracle/oak/bin/odacli list-databases' as root on servernode1.

Configure Command

Use the configure and update commands to configure the appliance.

configure-firstnet

Use the command configure-firstnet to configure the first network in the appliance after racking and connecting the power and network cables.

File Path

$ORACLE_HOME/opt/oracle/oak/bin/configure-firstnet

Syntax

  #  configure-firstnet  

Usage Notes

Oracle Database Appliance X7-2 has two dual-port public network interfaces, a 10GBase-T (copper) and a 25GbE SFP28 (fiber) network interface. Oracle Database Appliance uses the interface to create the initial network connection and to create virtual local area networks (VLANs). This command ensures that the system is available in the network, enabling you to manage the deployment through the Oracle Appliance Manager Web Console.

  • Bonded network configuration: Bonded dual-ported interface. With the bonded configuration, you can only enable one of the interfaces. The bonded configuration supports VLANs. The bonded network configuration uses btbond1. Default setting.

  • Non-bonded network configuration: Two separate physical network interfaces, this configuration does not support VLANs. The non-bonded network configuration uses em2 and em3 as public interfaces.

  • To change a non-bonded network configuration to a bonded configuration, run the Oracle Database Appliance Cleanup Script and redeploy the appliance.

Example 14-4 Configuring the First Network as a Bonded Network

Configure the first network to use a btbond1 interface without configuring DHCP. Complete the IP address, netmask address, and gateway address.

Values that you need to provide are shown in italic font, with the exception of the net1 gateway address; the program obtains the gateway IP address. The program derives this gateway address using the network information you provided for the other IP addresses. Accept this value, unless your network administrator provides an alternative gateway address that is different from the default that the appliance command-line interface detects.

The following is an example of the command on a single node platform:

# configure-firstnet

Select the Interface to configure the network on (btbond1): btbond1
Configure DHCP on btbond1 (yes/no): no
INFO: You have chosen Static configuration
Enter the IP address to configure: 10.1.10.2
Enter the Netmask address to configure: 255.255.255.0
Enter the Gateway address to configure: 10.1.10.1

  odacli update dcsagent  -v version  [-j] [-h]

Parameters

Parameter Description

--version, -v

Defines the Oracle Database Appliance version after update.

--help, -h

(Optional) Displays help for using the command.

Usage Notes

The update dcsagent command updates the dcs-agent to the RPM package that is located in the location and restarts the dcs-agent. After the update is applied, the agent automatically restarts. It will take a few minutes to reconnect to the dcs-agent. Wait until the agent shuts down and completes restarting before performing any tasks.

Note:

Before updating the agent, ensure that you do not have any jobs running or pending during the update window.

Example 14-14 Updating the Agent

To update the dcs-agent to version 12.2.1.4.012.1.2.10:

# odacli update-dcsagent -v 12.2.1.4.0

  "description" : "DcsAgent patching",
  "updatedTime" : "March 26, 2018 14:09:24 PM CST"
}

odacli update-repository

Use the odacli update-repository command to update the repository with the new Oracle Database Appliance software.

Prerequisites

Before updating the repository, you must upload the Oracle Database Appliance software to the appliance. If the patch contains more than one zip file, then extract and concatenate the zip files before updating the repository.

The following is an example of the steps to get the files from My Oracle Support, extract, and concatenate the files:

Note:

The file names in the examples might not reflect actual file names.
  1. (Optional) Create a temporary directory in the /u01 directory. You will upload your Oracle Database Appliance software to this directory before adding the files to the update repository. You can use the existing /tmp directory, but it might not have sufficient space for the zip files. It is a good practice to clean the /tmpdir directory after you update the repository.

    /u01/tmpdir
    
  2. Download the Oracle Database Appliance software files from My Oracle Support, then upload the files to a temporary location in the /u01 directory in Oracle Database Appliance. For example:

    p26433721_122110_Linux-x86-64_1of2.zip and p26433721_122110_Linux-x86-64_2of2.zip

  3. If the patch contains more than one zip file, then extract the zip files and concatenate the files into a single zip file. For example, a file named oda-sm-12.2.1.1.0-171031-server.zip before updating the repository.

    When inflated, the files are named oda-sm-12.2.1.1.0-171031-server_1of2.zippart and oda-sm-12.2.1.1.0-171031-server_2of2.zippart

    # cat oda-sm-12.2.1.1.0-171031-server_1of2.zippart oda-sm-12.2.1.1.0-171031-server_2of2.zippart > oda-sm-12.2.1.1.0-171031-server.zip
    
  4. Concatenate the zip files into a single zip file. For example, a file named oda-sm-12.2.1.1.0-171031-server.zip.

    # cat oda-sm-12.2.1.1.0-171031-server_1of2.zippart oda-sm-12.2.1.1.0-171031-server_2of2.zippart > oda-sm-12.2.1.1.0-171031-server.zip
    

    The file is named oda-sm-12.2.1.1.0-171031-server.zip

  5. Use the concatenated zip file to update the repository

File Path

$ORACLE_HOME/opt/oracle/dcs/bin/odacli

Syntax

To unpack and copy the patch bundle to the correct locations in the file system:

odacli update-repository  -f filename [-j] [-h]

Parameters

Parameter Description

--filename, –f

Defines the zip filename of patch bundle or RDBMS clones downloaded from My Oracle Support. Provide a comma-separated list of absolute file paths of the end user and patch bundles.

--json, -j

(Optional) Displays JSON output. The default is false.

--help,-h

(Optional) Displays help for using the command.

Usage Notes

  • Before updating the repository, ensure that you do not have any jobs running or pending during the update window.

  • Upload the patches to dom0 on Node0. On multi-node systems, the DCS-Agent copies the patch to Node1 and updates the patch repository on both nodes.

Example 14-15 Updating the Repository

The server patch zip file is located in the /u01/tmpdir directory. The following example updates the repository with the latest server patch and then lists the job to verify that the update is successful:

# ./odacli update-repository -f /u01/tmpdir/oda-sm-12.2.1.1.0-171031-server.zip
{
  "jobId" : "d3510276-da05-447b-990e-6d30964f8f79",

odacli Backup and Recovery Commands

Use the odacli backup and recover commands to backup to and restore from Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage or disk.

Topics:

odacli create-backup

Use the command odacli create-backup to create a Level 0, Level 1, or Longterm backup configuration.

File Path

$ORACLE_HOME/opt/oracle/dcs/bin/odacli

Syntax

  odacli  create-backup -iDatabase Resource ID [-bt] [-c] [-h] [-j] [-k] [-t]

Parameters

Parameter Description
--backupType, -bt {Regular-L0|Regular-L1|Longterm}

Defines the type of backup. The options are not case sensitive.

--component, -c {Database}

(Optional) Defines the component. Database is the only supported option.

--dbid, -i

Defines the Database Resource ID.

--help, -h

(Optional) Displays help for using the command.

--json, -j

(Optional) Displays JSON output. The default is false.

--keepDays, -k

Defines the Keep Days. For Longterm Backup Type only.

--tag, -t

Defines the name of the backup. A tag is alphanumeric, up to 30 characters. Required for Longterm Backup Type.

Usage Notes

  • Use the command odacli create-backup for a specified Database Resource ID and provide a tag for the backup name. Use up to 30 alphanumeric characters for the backup name tag. Three types of backups are available:

    • Level 0:  An RMAN incremental backup that backs up all data blocks in the data files being backed up. An incremental backup at level 0 is identical in content to a full backup, but unlike a full backup, the level 0 backup is part of an incremental backup strategy.

    • Level 1: An RMAN incremental backup that includes only those blocks that have been changed since the "parent" backup was taken. A parent backup can be either a level 0 or a level 1 backup. If you do not select a backup type (level 0, level 1, or LongTerm), a level 1 backup is performed.

    • Longterm: Longterm backups are only available when backing up to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage (Oracle Object Storage).

  • This command creates a Backup Report with a Resource ID. To get the ID, use the command odacli describe-job -i job_id-j and look for the resourceId attribute in resourceList.

Example 14-19 Create a Manual Database Backup

Create a long term backup that is kept for 90 days and named q12018HR.

  # odacli  create-backup -i Database Resource ID -bt Longterm -c database -k 90 -t q12018HR

Example 14-20 Create a Level 0 Database Backup

Create a Level 0 backup named 2017Dec22ProductionLevel0 for resource ID 20576eb1-bc32-4e34-bf97-fda0b60ca15b

# odacli  create-backup -i20576eb1-bc32-4e34-bf97-fda0b60ca15b -bt Regular-L0 -t 2017Dec22ProductionLevel0

Example 14-51 Creating a Database in Interactive Mode

This example creates an 12.1.0.2 OLTP container database named hrdb with shape odb2 and enables you to provide the password interactively.

Note:

To provide a password interactively, use the -m option, but do not provide the password until prompted.
# odacli create-database -n hrdb -c -m -cl OLTP -s odb2 -p pdb1 

Password for SYS,SYSTEM and PDB Admin: 
{
   "jobId" : "f12485f2-dcbe-4ddf-aee1-de24d37037b6",
   "status" : "Created",
   "message" : null,
   "reports" : [ ],
   "createTimestamp" : "March 26, 2018 03:54:03 AM EDT",
   "description" : "Database service creation with db name: hrdb",
   "updatedTime" : "March 26, 2018 03:54:03 AM EDT" 
}

Example 14-52 Creating a Database in Non-Interactive Mode

This example creates an 12.1.0.2 OLTP database named crmdb with shape odb2 and enables you to specify the password in the command-line. To define the password in the command-line, use the –hm option and define the password. Because the container database flag (-c) is not used, the database created is not a container database.

# odacli create-database -n crmdb -hm WelCome__12 -cl OLTP -s odb2 
{
   "jobId" : "30b5e2a6-493b-4461-98b8-78e9a15f8cdd",
   "status" : "Created",
   "message" : null,
   "reports" : [ ],
   "createTimestamp" : "March 26, 2018 03:59:22 AM EDT",
   "description" : "Database service creation with db name: crmdb",
   "updatedTime" : "March 26, 2018 03:59:22 AM EDT" 
}

Example 14-53 Creating a Database Against a Different Version

Either of the following statements creates a database against a home with Oracle Database Bundle (170718) applied:

# odacli create-database -m -n hrmsdb1 -v 12.1.0.2       
# odacli create-database -m -n hrmsdb2 -v 12.1.0.2.170718  

The following statement creates a new database against a home with Oracle Database Bundle patch 170814:

# odacli create-database -m -n hrmsdb3 -v 12.1.0.2.170814

odacli register-database

Use the odacli register-database command to register a migrated database with the appliance.

File Path

$ORACLE_HOME/opt/oracle/dcs/bin/odacli

Syntax

odacli register-database  -c {OLTP|DSS|IMDB} -s dbshape -t dbtypeSI 
-o hostname -sn servicename -p syspassword[-bi backupconfigid] [-co|-no-co] [-h][-j]

Parameters

Parameter Description

--backupconfigid, -bi

(Optional) Defines the backup configuration identifier for future use.

--dbclass, -c {OLTP|DSS|IMDB}

Defines the database class. The database class setting determines the database SGA memory and instance PGA memory configuration. The options are as follows:

  • Enterprise Edition: OLTP, DSS, or IMDB.

  • Standard Edition: OLTP

--dbconsole, -co

(Optional) Enables the Database Console. Use the -no-coflag to disable the Database Console. If not selected, the default is no Database Console.

--dbshape, -s

Identifies the database shape (template) and determines the total memory allocated to the database. For example, odb1 and odb2. The default is odb1.

--dbtype, -t [SI]

Defines the type of database. The database type is Single Instance. The default is SI.

--help, -h

(Optional) Displays help for using the command.

--hostname, -o

Defines the host name. Default: local host name

--json, -j

(Optional) Displays JSON output.

--no-dbconsole, -no-co

(Optional) Disables Database Console. Use the -coflag to enable Database Console.

--servicename, -sn

Defines the Database Service Name. Using this service name, the EZCONNECT String is derived for connecting to the database. For example, hostname:port/servicename.

The Port number is the port configured for the listener, as part of the deployment.

--syspassword, -p

Defines the proxy user password for SYS.

Usage Notes

Note:

It is a good practice to use Easy Connect (EZCONNECT) to test the database connectivity before registering the database.

Log in as the sys user and enter the following command:

sqlplus sys/password@//hostname:1521/service name
  • To execute the command in non-interactive mode, use the hidden parameter -hp to specify the password in the command line instead of using the -p parameter to specify the password.

  • The migrated database is registered with the listener configured during the provisioning of the appliance. The migrated database must be in read-write or read-only mode for the registration to succeed.

  • The register-database command validates the datafile and log file locations and moves the controlfile and spfile to the correct locations.

  • The following are the minimum compatible parameters set, based on the database version:

    • Oracle Database 12c : 12.1.0.2

    • Oracle Database 11 g : 11.2.0.4

  • Some init.ora parameters are set, or reset, as part of the registration.  Review the parameter changes before and after registration.

    The following are examples of changes implemented as part of registration:

    • The memory_target is reset.

    • The sga_target/pga_aggregate_target/log_buffer/inmemory_size is configured based on the database class and database shape settings used during registration.

    • The registration process sets, or resets, the recommended appliance-specific parameters.

  • The database being registered must use Oracle Managed Files and the file location must match the DATA Location, REDO Location and RECO Location of the odacli describe-dbstorage command.

  • As part of the registration process, the database is registered with Oracle Clusterware. Depending on the database role, the database is registered as Primary or Standby database with Oracle Clusterware.

  • If you are registering the database as a standby database, then open the database in read-only mode before executing the odacli register-database command.

Example 14-54 Registering a Migrated Database

The following is the syntax to register a single instance OLTP database that is using shape odb1.

odacli register-database -c OLTP -s odb1 -sn crmdb.example.com -p
Password for SYS:

Use the odaadmcli expand storage command to expand storage.

File Path

$ORACLE_HOME/opt/oracle/dcs/bin/odaadmcli

Syntax

  odaadmcli expand storage -ndisk number of disks to be added -enclosure {0|1} [-h]

Parameters

Parameter Description
--enclosure {0|1}

Defines the JBOD or shelf number. The base storage shelf is 0. The storage expansion shelf is 1.

This option is only available for multi-node platforms. It is not supported on Oracle Database Appliance X7-2S and X7-2M single node platforms.

--help, -h

(Optional) Displays help for using the command.

-ndisk

Defines the number of disks to be added in the enclosure.

Usage Notes

Various storage options are available. On multi-node platforms, the base storage is SSD and you can choose to add either SSD or HDD disks. When adding a storage expansion shelf, all disks must be the same type (you cannot combine SSD and HDD disks).

Note:

In addition to reviewing the expand storage command, it is important to follow the procedures for adding storage. Cabling validation and disk placement is important. In some cases, you must move disks to different slots to successfully expand storage.
  • The following storage options are available on single node platforms:

    • Oracle Database Appliance X7-2S platforms have fixed storage that cannot be expanded.

    • Oracle Database Appliance X7-2M platforms are configured with two (2) NVME disks. You can expand storage to five (5) or eight (8) NVME disks.

  • The following SSD storage options are available on multi-node Oracle Database Appliance X7-2-HA platforms:

    • Base configuration.

    • Base configuration plus five (5), 10, or 15 SSD disks.

    • Second storage shelf base configuration plus 15 SSD disks (fully populated). The base configuration must be fully populated before adding an expansion shelf. The expansion shelf must be fully populated.

  • The following HDD storage options are available on multi-node Oracle Database Appliance X7-2-HA platforms:

    • Base configuration.

    • Base configuration plus 15 HDD disks (fully populated).

    • Second storage shelf base configuration plus 24 HDD disks (fully populated). The base configuration must be fully populated before adding an expansion shelf. The expansion shelf must be fully populated.

odaadmcli VLAN Management Commands

Use the odaadmcli VLAN commands to list and manage virtual local area networks (VLANs) for Oracle Database Appliance bare metal platform.

Topics:

odaadmcli create vlan

Use the odaadmcli create vlan command to create a virtual local area network (VLAN).

File Path

$ORACLE_HOME/opt/oracle/dcs/bin/odaadmcli

Syntax

odaadmcli create vlan vlanname -vlanid identifier -if {bond0|bond1} -node {0|1} -setuptype type {backup | management | public | custom} -ip address -netmask address -gateway address [–h] [–j]

Parameters

Parameter Description
-gateway

Defines the gateway address. Define the gateway as 0.0.0.0 when the VLAN interface does not require a gateway.

--help, -h

(Optional) Displays help for using the command.

-if {bond0|bond1}

Defines the name of the interface on which the VLAN network is created. The options are bond0 or bond1.

--json , -j

(Optional) Displays JSON output.

-netmask

Defines the netmask address.

-node {0|1}

Defines the node for the VLAN. The options are 0 or 1. The default is 0.

-setuptype {backup | management | public | custom}

Defines the setup type. For example, management. The default is public.

-vlanid

Defines the VLAN identifier (ID) to which the VLAN network belongs. The VLAN ID must be unique for a single node platform. For a multi-node platform, you can use the same ID to create a network on Node0 and Node1.

Usage Notes

  • Two physical ports, either copper or fiber, are bonded as bond0. When you create a VLAN, you create it on bond0 of a specific node, Node0 or Node1.

  • Use the odaadmcli show vlan command to obtain the existing VLAN names and details.

  • When naming the VLAN, use a logical name for the network. The name must be unique in a given node. However, you can create the same named network on both Node0 and Node1 of a multi-node platform.

  • Because a virtual machine (VM) that resides on a shared repository can be started on either node, create a VLAN network with the same name on both nodes. If the needed network is not available, then the VM cannot be started on that node.

  • The supported setup types are as follows:

    • Backup: Configure for backup operations.

    • Management: Configure for management traffic, such as Oracle Enterprise Manager, and access to the management capabilities of a switch. You must provide an IP address and default gateway for the Management VLAN. A best practice is that the Management VLAN is not the primary VLAN (VLAN1) and does not carry user data traffic.

    • Public: Configure for the public access. This is the default public interface. Only one VLAN should be a public VLAN.

    • Custom: Configure for VLAN for other uses.

  • Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is not supported.

Example 14-103 Creating a VLAN on Node0

Use the odaadmcli create vlan command to create a VLAN named vlan105 on Node0:

# odaadmcli create vlan vlan105 -vlanid 105 -if bond0 -node 0 -setuptype management -ip 10.0.2.254 -netmask 255.255.0.0 -gateway 10.214.0.1 
Created Vlan : vlan105

Example 14-104 Creating a VLAN on Node1

Use the odaadmcli create vlan command to create a VLAN named vlan105 on Node1:

# odaadmcli create vlan vlan105 -vlanid 105 -if bond0 -node 1 -setuptype management -ip 10.0.2.254 -netmask 255.255.0.0 -gateway 10.214.0.1 
Created Vlan : vlan105

odaadmcli delete vlan

Use the odaadmcli delete vlan command to delete a VLAN.

File Path
