Table A-19 srvctl add srvpool Parameters

Parameter	Description
-serverpool server_pool_name	The name of the server pool.
-eval	Use this parameter to hypothetically evaluate the impact of the command on the system.
-importance importance	The importance of the server pool (default value is `0`).
-min min_size	The minimum size of the server pool (default value is `0`).
-max max_size	The maximum size of the server pool. The default value is `-1`, which indicates that the size is unlimited.
-servers "node_list"	A comma-delimited list of candidate node names enclosed in double quotation marks (`""`). The server pool will only include nodes on the candidate list, but not all nodes on the candidate list will necessarily be in the server pool. Note: In Oracle Database 12c, servers are assigned to server pools according to the value of the `-category` parameter.
-category server_category	The category of servers to use for the server pool, or `""` for the empty category value. You can use `hub` for `ora.hub.category`, `leaf` for `ora.leaf.category`, or you can define your own category. The default is `ora.hub.category`.
-force	Add the server pool, even if it requires stopping resources in other server pools.
-verbose	Display verbose output.

Usage Notes

SRVCTL prepends "ora." to the name of the server pool.

Example

An example of this command is:

$ srvctl add srvpool -serverpool SP1 -importance 1 -min 3 -max 7
