Bare Metal - Google

Question

Can we use Stackdriver for Oracle database monitoring on bare metal solution in GCP?

My Scenario: I want to install Oracle database on bare metal server. Google does say that all the Google Cloud's services can be used with the bare metal solution. If so, we can use stackdriver for the monitoring. Can you help with how to set that up?

Answer 1

As stated in doc, we can manage all our custom scripts in the bare metal solution,so stackdriver can be used for Oracle database monitoring on the bare metal solution in GCP.

To setup Google Cloud to work with your Bare Metal environment follow the below steps:

1. Create the VLAN Attachments for the Cloud Interconnect connection.

2. Specify Advertisements on an existing BGP session using the below command:

   gcloud compute routers update-bgp-peer router-name \ --peer-name bgp-session-name --advertisement-mode custom --set-advertisement-ranges 0.0.0.0/0

3. Create a firewall rule in your VPC network on Google Cloud.

4. Create a Jump Host VM instance on Google Cloud.

5. Login to a Bare Metal Solution server.

For Monitoring follow the steps:

1. Select a role for the GCP service account.
2. Configure GCP.
3. Complete the configuration.
