Attaching a Virtual Disk to a Virtual Machine

Use the oakcli modify vm command to attach a virtual disk to a virtual machine on
Oracle Database Appliance Virtualized Platforms.
The command oakcli modify vm name enables you to modify a virtual machine,
where name is the name of the virtual machine that you want to modify. To attach a
disk to a virtual machine, use the option -attachvdisk vdiskname, where vdiskname is
the name of the virtual disk that you want to attach to the virtual machine.
Example 12-11
This example attaches the virtual disk named sdisk1 to the virtual machine named
myol6u_test:
oakcli modify vm myo16u_test -attachvdisk sdisk1

Deleting a Virtual Disk

Use the oakcli delete vdisk command to remove a virtual disk from a shared
repository on Oracle Database Appliance Virtualized Platforms.
The command oakcli delete vdisk vdiskname removes a virtual disk, where
vdiskname is the name of the virtual disk that you want to remove. The option -repo
reponame indicates the shared repository on which the virtual disk is located, where
reponame is the name of the shared repository.
Example 12-12
This example removes a virtual disk named t2g from the shared repository named
repoprod1:
oakcli delete vdisk t2g -repo repoprod1
