Creating a Roving Edge Infrastructure Device Node

Create a Roving Edge Infrastructure device node in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

These instructions create the device node. After the device node is created, you must attach at least one image workload and at least one Object Storage bucket workload to it before you can submit it for approval (provisioning).

Note

Roving Edge Infrastructure device node orders can only be shipped to specific countries depending on where the order is placed. Contact your Oracle account representative for more information. See Country Support for more information.

    1. Open the navigation menu and click Hybrid. Under Roving Edge Infrastructure, click Nodes. The Nodes page appears.

    2. Click Create Node. The Create Node dialog box appears. Complete the following under Basic information:

      • Name: Enter the name of the device node.

      • Shape: Select RED.GPU.1.RX1.40 from the list. Select this shape option if you are configuring and requesting a RED.

      • Create in compartment: Select the compartment in which the device node you create resides from the list.
    3. (optional) Expand Password options. Click to display the Super user password and Confirm super user password fields. Enter and confirm the super user password.

    4. (optional) Expand Passphrase options. Click to display the Unlock passphrase and Confirm unlock passphrase fields. Enter and confirm the passphrase used to unlock the Roving Edge Infrastructure device associated with this node.

    5. (optional) Expand Shipping Options. Choose one of the options:

      • Shipped by Oracle: Complete the following shipping information:

        • Point of contact

        • Care of

        • City/Locality

        • State/Province/Region

        • Zip/Postal code

        • Country: Roving Edge Infrastructure device node orders can only be shipped to specific countries depending on where the order is placed. Contact your Oracle account representative for more information.

      • Pickup from Oracle

    6. (optional) Expand Certificate options: Click to display and complete the following certificate options:

      • Common Name: Enter a name for the certificate.

      • Issuer Certificate Authority in <compartment>: Select a certificate authority to be used for generating and renewing certificates for the device node. Click Change Compartment to select a certificate authority in another compartment.

      • Certificate Validity End Date: Enter the date and time on which the certificate is no longer valid.

      • Signature Algorithm: Select a signature algorithm from the list.

      • Key Algorithm: Select a key algorithm from the list.

      • Certificate Compartment: Select the compartment where the certificate resides.

    7. (optional) Show Tagging options: Click to display the Tagging option. 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.

      Note

      • Value

      Click +Another Tag to add another tag. Click X to remove the associated tag.

      See Overview of Tagging for descriptions of these fields.

    8. Click Create Node.

    The device node you created is added to the list of nodes.

  • Use the oci rover node create command and required parameters to create a Roving Edge Infrastructure device node in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure:

    oci rover node create --compartment-id compartment_ocid --display-name display-name --shape RED_GPU_1_RX1_40 [OPTIONS]

    To determine your Roving Edge Infrastructure device compartment OCID, see Compartments.

    The shape value RED.GPU.1.RX1.40 indicates you are creating a Roving Edge Infrastructure device node.

    For a complete list of parameters and values for CLI commands, see the CLI Command Reference.

  • Run the CreateRoverNode operation to create a Roving Edge Infrastructure device node in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
