Software Releases
Software releases on My Oracle Support are grouped by product family (such as Sun Fire
Server), then the product (the specific server or blade), and finally the software release
version. A software release contains all the updated software and firmware for your server or
blade as a set of downloadable files (patches), including firmware, drivers, tools, or
utilities, all tested together to be compatible with your server.
Each patch is a zip file that contains a ReadMe file and a set of subdirectories containing
firmware or software files. The ReadMe file contains details on the components that have
changed since the prior software release and the bugs that have been fixed.
My Oracle Support provides the set of software releases for your server as described in the
following table. You can obtain these software releases by downloading the files from My
Oracle Support.
