What You See in the Instance Section

Element Description

Instance Name

The name for the new Oracle Big Data Cloud cluster. The name:

  • Must not exceed 30 characters.

  • Must start with a letter.

  • For IDCS-enabled clusters: Must contain only letters and numbers.

  • For non-IDCS-enabled clusters: Can contain hyphens. Hyphens are the only special characters you can use.

  • Must be unique within the identity domain.

Description

(Optional) A description that can be used to help identify the cluster.

The description is only used during cluster list display and is not used internally by Service Manager.

Notification Email

(Optional) Email address that provisioning status updates should be sent to.

Region

(Displayed only if your account has multiple regions)

The region for the cluster. If you choose a region that supports Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, the Availability Domain and Subnet fields are displayed and populated, and the cluster will be created on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Otherwise, those fields are not displayed and the cluster will be created on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Classic.

To create your cluster on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, select us-phoenix-1, us-ashburn-1, eu-frankfurt-1, or uk-london-1 if those regions are available to you (which regions are displayed depends on which default data region was selected during the subscription process). If you select any other region, the cluster will be created on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Classic.

Select No Preference to let Big Data Cloud choose an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Classic region for you.

Availability Domain

(Displayed only on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure)

The availability domain (within the region) where the cluster will be placed.

Subnet

(Displayed only on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure)

The subnet (within the availability domain) that will determine network access to the cluster.

Select a subnet from a virtual cloud network (VCN) that you created previously on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Select No Preference to let Big Data Cloud choose a subnet for you.

IP Network

(Not available on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure)

(Available only if you have selected a region and you have defined one or more IP networks created in that region using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Compute Classic.)

Select the IP network where you want the cluster placed. Choose No Preference to use the default shared network provided by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Compute Classic.

For more information about IP networks, see About IP Networks and Creating an IP Network in Using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Compute Classic.

Metering Frequency

(Displayed only if you have a traditional metered subscription)

The metering frequency used to determine the billing for resources used by the cluster.

Tags

(Not available on Oracle Cloud at Customer)

Tags to be associated with the cluster. See Manage Tags.
