Adding the Storage Expansion Shelf
After the base storage shelf is fully populated, you can add the storage expansion
shelf to expand the storage capacity.
The addition of the storage expansion shelf includes checks across both nodes. It is
important to confirm that SSH does work across the nodes and all users can connect
as expected using their shared password.
Note:

If this is a new deployment or re-image of Oracle Database Appliance, perform the

following steps in order:
a.
Oracle recommends that you add a storage expansion shelf when you
have relatively little activity on your databases. When the system
discovers the new storage, Oracle ASM automatically rebalances the
disk groups. The rebalance operation may degrade database
performance until the operation completes.
Only offline addition of X7-2 storage expansion shelf to X6-2-HA Oracle
Database Appliance is supported.
Caution:
Review cabling instructions carefully to ensure that you have carried out
cabling correctly. Incorrect connections can cause data loss when
adding a storage expansion shelf to Oracle Database Appliance with
existing databases.
Power on the base storage.
