Using Volume Storage

This section provides an overview to using volume storage in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for use by JD Edwards EnterpriseOne with One-Click Provisioning.

To understand your volume storage options in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, refer to this link: Overview of Block Volume.

Using Storage: Block Volume and Boot Volume

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure supports two types of volumes:

  • Block Volumes

    This storage is used to expand the storage capacity of Compute instances, to provide durable and persistent data storage that can be migrated across Compute instances, and to host large databases in Compute. To use this volume type you must create, attach, and connect the volume.

  • Boot Volumes

    Instances that are created on the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure are allocated a fixed default amount of storage, called the Boot Volume. This default storage amount must be expanded to meet the requirements of JD Edwards Enterprise servers. These storage amount requirements are specified in the section of this Learning Path entitled Minimum Resource Requirements .

Selecting between boot volume or block volume storage is the responsibility of your system architect. For JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, at a minimum, you must create sufficient storage for these machines:

  • Provisioning Server
  • Database Server
  • Enterprise Server
  • WebLogic Server
  • Deployment Server
  • Development Client
