Oracle SOA Cloud Service Creation Error! Cloud Storage Username Validation Failed

7b36788f-ccb7-46a7-8d06-5462ab8dd6b0

While creating Oracle SOA Cloud service instance, The Backup and Recovery Configuration section requires the following information:

Storage Container Name: correctly filled in the form Storage-domain/containerName

Storage User Name: my email address

Cloud Storage Password: my correct password

I keep getting the following error:

One or more validations failed.

[Cloud Storage user name should consist of letters and numbers, and be between 2 to 50 characters.]

The validation tells me it is failing on the email address @ sign. But that is the username. I don't know if anyone has similar issue and has been overcome.

Thanks

Resolved. Quiet tricky.

As a note, after signing up for a trial cloud account, an email containing various URLs (account, services, etc) is sent to the email used to register. The email also includes the username (which is defaulted to the email address) and temporary password to access the account. As a matter of fact, I am able to provision various services without issue - Database as a cloud service on both 11g and 12c, Java Cloud service on Weblogic 11 and 12. However, the validation error only come up when provisioning SOA instance.

The Fix:

1. I logged on with my administrator details as sent in the Welcome email

2. Navigate to My Services

3. Click on Users tab

4. Added New User using my alternative email, deselect 'use email as username' checkbox, supply a username without special character

5. I used this detail in provisioning the SOA instance.

And this works.

You need to create storage admin credential in My Services->Users. Make sure new user created is assigned with Storage Admin role in Advanced section.
