2.1 Database servers
DISOD 2.0 offers two different servers to be used as Oracle Database nodes:
 Two-socket Dell PowerEdge R730 rack server, or

The database servers are preinstalled with Oracle Linux 6 running Unbreakable Enterprise
Kernel release 3. The OS is preconfigured with the necessary prerequisites that are
required for Oracle Database 12c installation. For more information about the OS
configuration, see the 4.2 Database nodes configuration section.
NOTE: Oracle Database software itself is not preinstalled on the database servers.
