Spec Fields

This summary shows the top-level spec fields. Use the full API reference for nested fields, defaults, and enum values.

Field Description Type Required
capacityReservationId The OCID (https://docs.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm) of the Capacity Reservation. string No
clusterByolAllocationDetails ClusterByolAllocationDetails defines nested fields for Cluster.ClusterByolAllocationDetails. object No
computeAvailabilityDomain The availability domain to create the Cluster's ESXi hosts in. For multi-AD Cluster deployment, set to multi-AD. string Yes
datastoreClusterIds A list of datastore clusters. list[string] No
datastores A list of datastore info for the Cluster. This value is required only when initialHostShapeName is a standard shape. list[object] No
definedTags Defined tags for this resource. Each key is predefined and scoped to a namespace. For more information, see Resource Tags (https://docs.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/resourcetags.htm). Example: {"Operations": {"CostCenter": "42"}} map[string, map[string, string]] No
displayName A descriptive name for the Cluster. Cluster name requirements are 1-22 character length limit, Must start with a letter, Must be English letters, numbers, - only, No repeating hyphens, Must be unique within the region. Avoid entering confidential information. string No
esxiHostsCount The number of ESXi hosts to create in the Cluster. You can add more hosts later (see CreateEsxiHost). Note: If you later delete EXSi hosts from a production Cluster to make SDDC total host count less than 3, you are still billed for the 3 minimum recommended ESXi hosts. Also, you cannot add more VMware workloads to the Cluster until the SDDC again has at least 3 ESXi hosts. integer Yes
esxiSoftwareVersion The ESXi software bundle to install on the ESXi hosts in the Cluster. Only versions under the same vmwareSoftwareVersion and have been validate by Oracle Cloud VMware Solution will be accepted. To get a list of the available versions, use ListSupportedVmwareSoftwareVersions. string No
freeformTags Free-form tags for this resource. Each tag is a simple key-value pair with no predefined name, type, or namespace. For more information, see Resource Tags (https://docs.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/resourcetags.htm). Example: {"Department": "Finance"} map[string, string] No
initialCommitment The billing option selected during Cluster creation. ListSupportedCommitments. string No
initialHostOcpuCount The initial OCPU count of the Cluster's ESXi hosts. number No
initialHostShapeName The initial compute shape of the Cluster's ESXi hosts. ListSupportedHostShapes. string No
initialVcfByolAllocationId The OCID (https://docs.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm) of the initial VMware BYOL Allocation used to deploy VMware Cloud Foundation. string No
instanceDisplayNamePrefix A prefix used in the name of each ESXi host and Compute instance in the Cluster. If this isn't set, the Cluster's displayName is used as the prefix. For example, if the value is myCluster, the ESXi hosts are named myCluster-1, myCluster-2, and so on. string No
isShieldedInstanceEnabled Indicates whether shielded instance is enabled for this Cluster. boolean No
networkConfiguration ClusterNetworkConfiguration defines nested fields for Cluster.NetworkConfiguration. object Yes
sddcId The OCID (https://docs.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm) of the SDDC that the Cluster belongs to. string Yes
vmwareSoftwareVersion The VMware software bundle to install on the ESXi hosts in the Cluster. To get a list of the available versions, use ListSupportedVmwareSoftwareVersions. string No
workloadNetworkCidr The CIDR block for the IP addresses that VMware VMs in the Cluster use to run application workloads. string No

Status Fields

This summary shows the top-level status fields. Use the full API reference for nested fields, defaults, and enum values.

Field Description Type Required
capacityReservationId The OCID (https://docs.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm) of the Capacity Reservation. string No
clusterByolAllocationDetails ClusterByolAllocationDetails defines nested fields for Cluster.ClusterByolAllocationDetails. object No
compartmentId The OCID (https://docs.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm) of the compartment that contains the Cluster. string No
computeAvailabilityDomain The availability domain the ESXi hosts are running in. For Multi-AD Cluster, it is multi-AD. Example: Uocm:PHX-AD-1, multi-AD string No
datastoreClusterIds A list of datastore clusters. list[string] No
datastores Datastores used for the Cluster. list[object] No
definedTags Defined tags for this resource. Each key is predefined and scoped to a namespace. For more information, see Resource Tags (https://docs.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/resourcetags.htm). Example: {"Operations": {"CostCenter": "42"}} map[string, map[string, string]] No
displayName A descriptive name for the Cluster. It must be unique, start with a letter, and contain only letters, digits, whitespaces, dashes and underscores. Avoid entering confidential information. string No
esxiHostsCount The number of ESXi hosts in the Cluster. integer No
esxiSoftwareVersion In general, this is a specific version of bundled ESXi software supported by Oracle Cloud VMware Solution (see ListSupportedVmwareSoftwareVersions). This attribute is not guaranteed to reflect the version of software currently installed on the ESXi hosts in the SDDC. The purpose of this attribute is to show the version of software that the Oracle Cloud VMware Solution will install on any new ESXi hosts that you add to this SDDC in the future with CreateEsxiHost unless a different version is configured on the ESXi host level. Therefore, if you upgrade the existing ESXi hosts in the Cluster to use a newer version of bundled ESXi software supported by the Oracle Cloud VMware Solution, you should use UpdateCluster to update the Cluster's esxiSoftwareVersion with that new version. string No
freeformTags Free-form tags for this resource. Each tag is a simple key-value pair with no predefined name, type, or namespace. For more information, see Resource Tags (https://docs.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/resourcetags.htm). Example: {"Department": "Finance"} map[string, string] No

initialCommitment The billing option selected during Cluster creation. ListSupportedCommitments. string No
initialHostOcpuCount The initial OCPU count of the Cluster's ESXi hosts. number No
initialHostShapeName The initial compute shape of the Cluster's ESXi hosts. ListSupportedHostShapes. string No
initialVcfByolAllocationId The OCID (https://docs.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm) of the initial VMware BYOL Allocation used to deploy VMware Cloud Foundation. string No
instanceDisplayNamePrefix A prefix used in the name of each ESXi host and Compute instance in the Cluster. If this isn't set, the Cluster's displayName is used as the prefix. For example, if the value is MyCluster, the ESXi hosts are named MyCluster-1, MyCluster-2, and so on. string No
isShieldedInstanceEnabled Indicates whether shielded instance is enabled at the Cluster level. boolean No
lifecycleState The current state of the Cluster. string No
networkConfiguration ClusterNetworkConfiguration defines nested fields for Cluster.NetworkConfiguration. object No
sddcId The OCID (https://docs.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm) of the SDDC that the Cluster belongs to. string No
status - object Yes
systemTags Usage of system tag keys. These predefined keys are scoped to namespaces. Example: {orcl-cloud: {free-tier-retain: true}} map[string, map[string, string]] No
timeCreated The date and time the Cluster was created, in the format defined by RFC3339 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3339). Example: 2016-08-25T21:10:29.600Z string No
timeUpdated The date and time the Cluster was updated, in the format defined by RFC3339 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3339). string No
upgradeLicenses The vSphere licenses to use when upgrading the Cluster. list[object] No
vmwareSoftwareVersion In general, this is a specific version of bundled VMware software supported by Oracle Cloud VMware Solution (see ListSupportedVmwareSoftwareVersions). This attribute is not guaranteed to reflect the version of software currently installed on the ESXi hosts in the Cluster. The purpose of this attribute is to show the version of software that the Oracle Cloud VMware Solution will install on any new ESXi hosts that you add to this Cluster in the future with CreateEsxiHost.

vsphereType vSphere Cluster types. string No
vsphereUpgradeObjects The links to binary objects needed to upgrade vSphere. list[object] No
workloadNetworkCidr The CIDR block for the IP addresses that VMware VMs in the SDDC use to run application workloads. string No
