Important
UKCloud for Oracle Software has been retired from sale by UKCloud. We'll continue to support all existing customers who are using this service, however, we are no longer providing this service for new workloads. This article provides existing UKCloud for Oracle Software customers with access to support documentation and we'll continue to update it as required. For new Oracle requests, contact your Client Director or Service Delivery Manager.
Owing to the nature of Oracle workloads and the need to pin them to processor cores, workloads will be automatically moved in the event of a host failure only if you've enabled the high availability (HA) feature on each VM.
Note
If you do not enable the HA feature for your VMs, if a failure occurs, UKCloud will need to manually move the Oracle VM to a new host, at which point you'll be notified to restart your application.
This article describes how to enable HA for your Oracle VMs.
To complete the steps in this guide you must have access to Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control.
To enable HA:
-
Log in to the Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control console at:
https://ecco.r00006.frn.ukcloud.com/em
If you need more detailed instructions, see the Getting Started Guide for UKCloud for Oracle Software.
-
On the Infrastructure -- Oracle VM Cloud Services page, click the Servers icon.
-
The Servers page lists the servers (VMs) you've requested.
-
Select the VM for which you want to enable HA.
-
From the Action menu, select Modify Configuration.
-
On the Modify Configuration page, select Enable High Availability.
-
Click OK.
