Note:
– This network is unavailable if network channel bonding is used for the
client access network.
– This network is optional. A cable is not required unless the network is
configured during deployment.
• Additional network NET3 connection requirements
One Ethernet connection per database server to connect NET3 to your existing
network. The number depends on the system type, as follows:
– 8 connections for Oracle Exadata Database Machine 2-socket, full rack
systems
– 4 connections for Oracle Exadata Database Machine 2-socket, half rack
systems
– 2 connections for Oracle Exadata Database Machine 2-socket, quarter rack
systems
– 2 connections for Oracle Exadata Database Machine 8-socket, full rack
systems
Note:
This network is optional. A cable is not required unless the network is
configured during deployment.
Oracle Exadata Database Machine X2-8 Full Rack has a total of 16 Ethernet ports per
server. The additional networks for Oracle Exadata Database Machine X2-8 Full Rack
are NET2 through NET15.
The following table shows examples of connection requirements for different sample
environments. The table applies to two-socket x86 Oracle Exadata Database Machine
X3-2 and later.
Table 1-35 Examples of Network Configurations and Connection Requirements
for Oracle Exadata Database Machine 2-Socket Systems X3-2 and Later
Scenario Network Requirements
Core Requirements • 1 for Ethernet switch
• 2 for PDU monitoring
Bonded network configuration, and connected
to a dedicated backup network
• 2 per database node for client access for
bonded Ethernet interface on database
servers
• 1 per database node for backup network
access for database servers
Total = 3 + (3 * number of database nodes)
