Requirements and Guidelines for NVMe Over Fabrics Storage

Review these requirements and guidelines for configuring NVMe over Fabrics storage (NVMe-oF) devices to use with Oracle Automatic Storage Management (Oracle ASM).

Requirements

  • Initiator operating system version supported by the current Oracle Database release.
  • NVMe-oF storage targets with Linux Kernel version 5.4 or later using nvmet_tcp module.
  • 25 GbE or more network interface card on both the Oracle Grid Infrastructure server and the NVMe over Fabrics storage target.
  • Initiator IP addresses that can communicate with all the NVMe-oF storage target IP addresses.

Guidelines

  • All Oracle ASM storage configuration guidelines apply to NVMe-oF storage devices.
