To create a Recovery Kit for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (RK for OCI) resource, complete the following steps:
- Launch the Create Resource Wizard by referring to Creating Resource Hierarchies.
- Select OCIVIP for the application you are going to protect.
- Enter the following parameters.
| Field | Tips |
|---|---|
| Secondary IP address | Enter the secondary private IP address. The IP address specified here will be assigned to the VNIC. |
| Network Interface | Select the network interface name to which you want to assign an IP address. You can choose from the network interface names corresponding to the VNICs to which the IP address can be assigned. |
| OCIVIP Resource Tag | Enter a tag name that is unique to the RK for OCI resource you are creating. The default tag name, ocivip-<ip>, is automatically displayed in this field. <ip> is the specified secondary private IP address. |
- Once all the parameters are entered, the resource will be created and come in service. If LifeKeeper detects a problem, an error will be displayed in the information box or log file.
- A corresponding IP resource is created automatically.The IP address and network interface name of the IP resource are the same as the RK for OCI resource. Also, the netmask value will be the subnet mask (CIDR) value of the subnet with which the VNIC to which the IP address is assigned is associated. Recommended settings by SIOS will be applied to some settings. If you want to change the settings, do so after creating the resource, or create a single IP resource before creating the RK for OCI resource.
- If an IP resource already exists, skip the creation of the corresponding IP resource.
- Create a dependency with the IP resource as parent and the RK for OCI resource as child.
If the resource is created successfully, the Pre-Extend configuration task will be launched.
