Oracle Database Appliance.
The Oracle Database Appliance X9-2 series systems support up to three optional
public network cards (or three network cards per node if you have an X9-2-HA).
•
If possible, order any optional public network cards when you initially buy the
system and have the cards factory installed.
•
If you want to add or replace public network cards after your appliance has been
delivered from the factory, the following rules apply:
–
You can install any of the supported network cards listed in the table below.
–
You must install optional network cards in the proper order and slots (refer to
the table below).
–
If you want to replace an existing network card, you must first delete the
network card and its network interface using the appliance oftware. Then
replace the physical network card with the new one. When the appliance is
restarted the new network card will be used. For specific instructions on
software removal or configuration of a public network card, refer to the
Deployment and User's Guide.
Note:
You cannot replace the factory installed public network card installed
in PCIe slot 6. In addition, for the Oracle Database Appliance X9-2-
HA, you cannot replace the factory installed cluster interconnect
network card installed in PCIe slot 1.
The following table describes the supported network cards and the order in which they
can be installed in the system.
