Reserve IP Addresses for Oracle Database Exadata Cloud Service When Region Not Enabled

Only Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Classic This topic applies only to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Classic.

If regions are enabled for your account and you select a region name in the service instance creation wizard, you can use reserved IP addresses for your VMs without using this procedure. If regions are not enabled, you must follow this procedure to reserve IP addresses:

  1. Create an Oracle Database Exadata Cloud Service database deployment if you have not done so already.
  2. Determine the initial size for the Oracle WebLogic Server cluster you will define when you create your Oracle SOA Cloud Service instance.
  3. Log in to support.oracle.com (My Oracle Support).
  4. File a Service Request to obtain authorized IP addresses for your Oracle SOA Cloud Service instance.
    Oracle will provide IP addresses and open up the firewall at these addresses on the Oracle Database Exadata Cloud Service.
    In the Service Request, specify the following information:
    • Your identity domain.

    • Oracle Required Schema database name, which must be the name of the Oracle Database Exadata Cloud Service database deployment if you are not specifying a database deployment for the Application Schema.

    • (Optional) Application Schema database deployment name.

    • Desired number of servers in your WebLogic Server cluster.
