During deployment you choose a size for the OCSBC, based on pre-packaged Azure
sizes. After deployment, you can change the detail of these sizes to, for example, add
disks or interfaces. Azure presents multiple size options for multiple size types. These
size types define architectural differences and cannot be changed after deployment.
Azure size types include:
•
F(x)—Does not support premium storage
•
FS(x)—Supports premium storage
•
FS(x)_v2—Supports premium storage and hyperthreading.
See your software version's release notes for tables of supported machine sizing.
Disks
Azure instance deployment Disk configuration includes setting the OS disk type to
Standard HDD.
Despite the initial boot disk size provided by Oracle, you are free to create a boot disk
that is a different size, as supported by Azure. Specifically, consider whether you need
a disk that is larger than the initial size to allow for storing log files and other data.
When creating disks, refer to both Azure and this Installation Guide's instructions and
guidelines on creating, formatting and mounting your disks.
