Implementation Considerations
The following sections provide important information about configuring Oracle 3.84 TB NVMe SSD v2 in supported servers.
SSD Volume Management
A volume manager can present multiple SSD devices as one larger volume. Use the Automatic Storage Management (ASM) volume manager or other volume manager to concatenate multiple flash memory domains. For example, a volume manager can be used to concatenate four 3.84 TB domains into a single 15.36 TB volume.
Refer to the Automatic Storage Management documentation at https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/oracle-database/19/ostmg/index.html.

Life monitoring capability |
Provides alerts for proactive replacement of the drive before the endurance is depleted. Provides endurance remaining in NVMe SMART logs. SSD supports the standard method defined by NVMe for Solid State Drive to report NAND wear through the “Get Log” command SMART/Health Information Percentage Used field. The units are whole percentage of wear. Percentage Used: Contains a vendor specific estimate of the percentage of NVM subsystem life used based on the actual usage and the manufacturer’s prediction of NVM life. A value of 100 indicates that the estimated endurance of the NVM in the NVM subsystem has been consumed, but may not indicate an NVM subsystem failure. The value is allowed to exceed 100. Percentages greater than 254 are represented as 255. This value is updated once per power-on hour (when the controller is not in a sleep state). Refer to the JEDEC JESD218A standard for SSD device life and endurance measurement techniques. |
End-to-End data-path protection |
T10 DIF Type 0, Type 1, Type 2, Type 3, no performance impact. T10 DIF (data integrity field) end-to-end data protection includes multiple levels of data-path protection. |
Enhanced power-loss data protection |
Energy storage components complete buffered writes to the persistent flash storage in case of a sudden power loss. |
Power loss protection capacitor self-test |
Supports testing of the power loss capacitor. Power is monitored using SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) attribute critical warning. |
Out-of-Band Management (SMBUS) |
Managed through the SMBUS. Provides out-of-band management by means of SMBUS interface. This requires 3.3V auxiliary voltage. SMBUS access includes NVMe-MI, the VPD page and temperature sensor. |
Hot-Plug Support |
Supports PCIe presence detect and link-up detect. Device advanced power loss protection provides robust data integrity. During IOs, the storage drive integrated monitoring enables the integrity of already committed data on the media and commits acknowledged writes to the media. |
Management utilities |
For more information about management utilities, refer to the server documentation. |

LED | Color | Normal operation | Status |
---|---|---|---|
(1) Ready to Remove |
Blue |
OFF – The drive has not been prepared for removal. Normal operation. |

(2) Service Action Required |
Amber |
OFF – Normal operation. |
STEADY ON – Service action is required. The system has detected a fault with the drive. BLINKING – Locater. Status indicator blinks on and off to locate drive. |
(3) Power/OK/Activity |
Green |
STEADY ON (does not blink) – Drive is engaged and is receiving full power. Normal operation. |
RANDOM BLINKING – There is drive activity. Status indicator blinks on and off to indicate activity. OFF – Power is off, or installed drive is not recognized by the system. |
