After completing the Oracle Linux installation, you should review the following post installation tasks and, if necessary, perform the tasks that are applicable to your system.
If you intend to use the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) feature set that is provided in Oracle Linux, you must configure your server to support this feature. For instructions, see the service manual for the server:
Sun Server X2-4 Service Manual
Note - TPM enables you to administer the TPM security hardware in your server. For additional information about implementing this feature, refer to the TPM documentation available for Oracle Linux.
After installing Oracle Linux, you should register your system and activate your subscription with Oracle to receive automatic updates to the software. For more details, see Oracle Linux Support at:
