        The USB device is named: ORACLE_SSM

      2. Navigate to the appropriate Linux OS Tools folder using the following path structure:

        Linux/OS_name/version/Tools/tool

        where OS_name is the installed OS as OL (Oracle Linux), RHEL (Red Hat), or SLES (SUSE), version is the version of the installed Linux OS, and tool is the tool as MSM, MegaCLI, or hmp-tools.
