Dear Readers,
My name is Franz Devantier, creator of this blog. I am an Oracle Certified Professional (OCP DBA 11g) Security DBA. I will be sharing with you the basic duties of an Oracle DBA, and also some of the undocumented, and not so well known tasks.
I will make a deal with you: If you refer me to a company that needs database support, from a few hours per week to full time, and I am able to sign a contract with them.
Then I will give you 10% of the monthly contract or deal price every month. When the contract ends, and we re-sign the contract, I will again give you 10% of the monthly contract price. This will go on until the company no longer employs or contracts me or my agents to look after their databases.
I can do this, because that 10% is my marketing budget. When we re-sign the contract, in the future, it may depend on you giving the thumbs up again, and that is worth 10% of the monthly contract price, to be given to you as commission.

Exalogic
vDC Management - Part 3
Establishing Cloud Accounts
Establishing Cloud Accounts in the vDC, involves creating
Cloud Users and Cloud Accounts.
Creating Accounts for Cloud Users
For example to create a Cloud Account “Account1” for
“User1”, and “Account2” for “User2”, you can follow these steps:
1.) Login to the Exalogic Control as the Cloud admin user.
2.) ON the left Navigation pane, click on “vDC Management”. Under vDCs, click on the name of the default
vDC in your Exalogic machine from the list of vDCs. Now click on the “Accounts” tab on the top
navigation bar, or just click on “Accounts”.
The “Accounts” page is displayed.
Click on the “+” icon to
start the “Create Account Wizard”.
3.) In the “Specify Account Details” window, you fill in
the fields, for example:
Name: Dept1
Description: Account for Dept1
4.) Click on the “Next”
button. The “Specify Account Resource
Limits” screen is displayed. The Account
Resource Limits represent the sum total of all resources that are available to all
of the users that will execute in the context of the Account, in this case “dept1”.
5.) You must now enter values for the following fields:
-> vCPU: This
field should take an integer value, for example a value of 20 may be
appropriate, because this is for the account resource limit.
-> Memory:
You can enter a value in Giga-Bytes, which again could be reasonably high, for
example: 100 GB.
-> Storage:
Again you want to define the storage in Giga-Bytes, which can be reasonably
high, because the Exalogic machine has very high total specs, for example: 2000
GB.
-> Number of
private vNets: Again this is a number value that can range from 0 to
4096. If you imagine that about 12
should be more than enough, you can enter a value of 12 here.
While you are entering this information, it is very
important to look at the box in the middle of the screen with the heading “Resource
Quota Information”. Make sure that you
don’t oversubscribe any of the resources.
The important thing here is to provide appropriate values, and to do
proper planning to facilitate the smooth growth of your Exalogic investment.
-> Public
Networks Resource Limits: This table
is at the bottom of the screen. Under
here you will find the public networks that are available in the vDC
listed. You need to select the Public
Networks that you need to be accessible by the users of the account
(Dept1). On the right hand side of the
table, in the “Limit” column, you can specify the number of IP addresses to be
allocated from the “Available Addresses” column.
6.)
When you are finished, then click on the “Next” button. The “Assign Users” screen is displayed.
Select
the users from the “Available Cloud Users” in the left hand pane, and click on
the Arrow icon, to move them across to the “Assigned Cloud Users” in the right
hand pane. After the account creation,
you can add additional Cloud users to the Account.
7.) Click on the “Next” button, the “Summary” screen is
displayed.
8.) When you have finished reviewing the Summary, then you
can click on the “Finish” button to create the Account, for example “Dept1”.
9.) You can continue to create additional accounts, which
will be listed under the “Account” on the left navigation pane. You can also click on the “Accounts” tab on
the top navigation bar, to verify that the new Accounts are created and listed.
