Creating a Compute Cloud@Customer Infrastructure in OCI

Create a Compute Cloud@Customer infrastructure in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) to communicate with the corresponding infrastructure in the data center.

Before creating an infrastructure, ensure that the following tenancy setup has been completed. See Preparing Your Tenancy.
  • A compartment is set up to host the infrastructure definitions.
  • A VCN and subnet are set up as required by the infrastructure.
  • IAM policies are set up to provide appropriate user and resource access to the infrastructure compartment.

Also ensure that an upgrade schedule for this infrastructure is defined. If you don't set up an upgrade schedule, Oracle can upgrade the infrastructure at any time. See Creating a Compute Cloud@Customer Upgrade Schedule.

  • To create an infrastructure, follow these steps:
    1. In the Oracle Cloud Console, open the navigation menu, select Hybrid, and then select Oracle Compute Cloud@Customer.
    2. Select Infrastructures.
    3. Select the compartment that you want to create the infrastructure in.
    4. Select Create infrastructure.
    5. Define the following infrastructure parameters. Avoid entering confidential information.
      • Display name: The name shown when listing infrastructures in the Oracle Cloud Console. This name must match the System Name supplied to Oracle in the Networking Checklist.
      • Description: (Optional) Information about the infrastructure to distinguish it from others.
      • Compartment: The compartment that you want to create the infrastructure in.
      • Networking: The VCN and subnet for this infrastructure. This value can't be edited later.
      • Upgrade schedule: (Optional) The upgrade schedule associated with this infrastructure, which defines when it can be upgraded. You can create and attach upgrade schedules later. See Managing Upgrade Schedules.
    6. (Optional) To add tags to the infrastructure, select Show advanced options.
      If you have permissions to create a resource, then you also have permissions to apply free-form tags to that resource. To apply a defined tag, you must have permissions to use the tag namespace. For more information about tagging, see Resource Tags.
    7. Select Create.

  • Use the ccc infrastructure create command and required parameters to create an infrastructure:

    oci ccc infrastructure create --compartment-id <compartment ocid> --display-name <Descriptive name> --subnet-id <subnet to connect infrastructure to>... [OPTIONS]

    Avoid entering confidential information.
