Deploy application volume group for Oracle using Azure Resource Manager

  • Grein

This article describes how to use an Azure Resource Manager (ARM) template to deploy Azure NetApp Files application volume group for Oracle.

For detailed documentation on how to use the ARM template, see ORACLE Azure NetApp Files storage.

Prerequisites and restrictions using the ARM template

  • In order to use the ARM template, you need to ensure that resource group, NetApp account, capacity pool, and virtual network resources are available for deployment.

  • All object such as the NetApp account, capacity pools, vNet, and subnet need to be in the same resource group.

  • As the application volume group is designed for larger Oracle databases, the database size must be specified in TiB. When you request more than one data volume, the size is distributed. The calculation is done in integer arithmetic and may lead to lower-than-expected sizes or even errors as the resulting size of each data volume being 0. To prevent this situation, instead of using the automatic calculation, you can select size and throughput for each of the data volume by changing the fields Data size and Data performance to numerical values instead of auto. Doing so prevents the automatic calculation.

Steps

  1. Log in to the Azure portal.

  7. Enter values for Number Of Oracle Data Volumes, Oracle Throughput, Capacity Pool, NetApp Account and Virtual Network.

    Note

    The specified throughput for the Oracle data volumes is distributed evenly across all data volumes. For all other volumes, you can choose to overwrite the default values according to your sizing.

    Note

    All volumes can be adapted in size and throughput to meet the database requirements after deployment.
