Register a Recovery Service Subnet

Register a Recovery Service subnet required for backup operations in the database VCN.

Multiple protected databases can use the same Recovery Service subnet. In order to ensure that the required number of IP addresses are available to support the Recovery Service private endpoints, you can assign multiple subnets to a Recovery Service subnet that is used by more than one protected database.
Note

  • Select an IPv4-only subnet for Recovery Service in your database VCN. Do not select an IPv6-enabled subnet as Recovery Service does not support using an IPv6-enabled subnet.
  • For Oracle Database@Azure and Oracle Database@Google Cloud, you must register the Recovery Service subnet by associating network security groups (NSG).
Ensure that you have completed the prerequisite configuration tasks specific to your Oracle Database service before you register the Recovery Service subnet.

Using the Console

  1. On the Recovery Service subnets list page, select Register Recovery Service subnet. See Listing Recovery Service Subnets for detailed steps to access the list page.
  2. Enter a name for the Recovery Service subnet. Avoid entering confidential information in the Name field.
  3. Verify the compartment where you want to create the Recovery Service subnet. Use the Create in compartment field to select a different compartment, if necessary.
  4. Select the Compartment that contains the virtual cloud network (VCN) that you want to use. You can select a VCN from only one compartment at a time
  5. Select the virtual cloud network.
  6. Under Subnets, select these options:
    1. Select the Compartment that contains the private subnet that you want to use.
    2. Select the Subnet that you have configured for Recovery Service operations in the selected VCN.
  7. (Optional) Select +Another Subnet to assign an additional subnet to the Recovery Service subnet.
    If a single subnet does not contain enough IP addresses to support the Recovery Service private endpoints, then you can assign multiple subnets.
  8. Expand Advanced options to configure these options: .
    • Network security groups

      If you have used a network security group (NSG) to implement security rules for Recovery Service in the database VCN, then you must add the Recovery Service NSG to the Recovery Service subnet. The Recovery Service NSG can reside in the same compartment or in a different compartment. However, the NSG must belong to the same VCN to which the specified subnet belongs.

      1. In the Network security groups section, select Use network security groups to control traffic.
      2. Select the Recovery Service NSG you have created in the database VCN.
      3. Select +Another network security group to associate multiple NSGs (maximum five).
      Note

      For Oracle Database@Azure and Oracle Database@Google Cloud, you must register the Recovery Service subnet by associating network security groups (NSG).

    • Tags: (Optional) Add one or more tags to the resource. If you have permissions to create a resource, then you also have permissions to apply free-form tags to that resource. To apply a defined tag, you must have permissions to use the tag namespace. For more information about tagging, see Resource Tags. If you are not sure whether to apply tags, skip this option or ask an administrator. You can apply tags later.

  9. Select Register.
    Note

    A Recovery Service subnet must be associated with at least one subnet belonging to your database VCN.
