This page describes how to manage an Exascale VM Cluster.
After you've provisioned an Exascale VM Cluster, Oracle Database@Google Cloud lets you add or delete VMs.
Before you begin
Make sure that you have the required Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles and permissions to modify an Exascale VM Cluster:
roles/oracledatabase.exadbVmClusterAdmin
For information on how to assign roles, see Apply IAM roles.
Make sure that you have the required OCI permissions necessary to manage an Exascale VM Cluster. Refer to the Oracle documentation.
