Issue:
When you provide Compute Service details while configuring Cloud Admin Tool using the knife command (Oracle EBS Cloud Admin Utility uses Chef Automation) after entering the values it gives
FATAL: Failed to connect to Oracle Cloud API (You compute REST API URL)
Analysis:
In our EBS R12 on Cloud Training, we noticed that this issue was only for trainees with Oracle Cloud Trial Accounts are associated with IDCS and having Multiple Sites.
Note: IDCS Stands for Oracle’s Identity Cloud Service. There are two type of Oracle Cloud Accounts
a) Traditional Cloud Account that uses Identity Domain
b) Cloud Account with IDCS (Identity Cloud Service)
This is the whole cause of issue and seems like all the trial accounts are affected with the same. The Endpoints are not authenticated if multiple end points are present in Cloud Account with IDCS.
