You can now launch #oracledatabase base DB service on Ampere based shapes. Unfortunately #oraclerac isn't available yet (so only LVM). Don't be surprised by max 57 OCPU, that has do with memory/socket assignment. PS: And no Standard Edition
@svilmune@OracleCloud You already have long term backups. It is called standalone backups! The only thing missing is an automatic deletion policy after x days/month/years. Not actually hard to do/script… With the big difference that DBCS/ExaDB-D doesn’t care if you drop the original database or not!
#oracle#oracleexadata on-premises now available with Oracle Linux 8 (UEK 6): https://t.co/iIo4YzRicJ
OL8 support for #oraclecloud will definitely follow now that OL8 support is released.
Enhanced @oraclecloud@oracleexadata infrastructure maintenance now includes additional time for custom action and events before/after each node patching. https://t.co/WScTZ5hWtN
Unfortunately, not yet live in every region (e.g. FRA is missing). But will be soon!
This time waited until it is fully official: New #oraclecloud AMD shapes for #orcldatabase Cloud Service, with flex OCPUs and more IOPs: https://t.co/cLHYqWSs8J.
@oraclebase@FranckPachot At first I didn’t like the new name for DBCS…, but with that perspective it is a great name ;)! Now I only need to find reasoning for ExaDB-D ….
@FSimonDBA You should modify before DG setup. Then it should work. After DG setup is a different discussion (eg dbaascli does not yet allow changing pwd in DG environment)
Had an exciting discussion @DOAGDB22 that dbaascli on #exadatacloud#exacc can't create databases without db_domain. While true, came across "dbaascli database modifyParameters -h" today, which is the supported way to change DB_DOMAIN after creation @FSimonDBA
@dhoogfr Unfortunately that is right. There is a fix ratio of 16 GB per OCPU (which is 1 GB more for the same price)… but flex memory is not available.
@svilmune We now show the theoretical max iops for 8k blocks for the configured storage and if your system will most likely be network (shape) or storage bound….
@svilmune@OracleCloud Slides will be in English (only presentation will be in German ;). Official release should be soon.... (though some customers have access since 1 month...)
@svilmune@dhoogfr@pfierens@OracleCloud@ociryan Yes you can... it is just not called instance principals (as the instance isn't owned by you), but resource principals (as you own the DB System):
