Install Host Drivers (Yum)

Before installing the host drivers, ensure that the following prerequisites are met:

  • The Yum repository is reachable through the network by the Oracle Linux server.

  • The Yum service is running correctly.

  • You have root access to the Yum repository.

Using Yum, you will install the kernel and Oracle Virtual Networking user space application from the Yum repository by using the yum install command. Using Yum, you do not install the software from the Oracle server or the Oracle Fabric Interconnect.

Note -  To install the latest kernels, which are not mentioned in Unbundled Installation Method, you can use the yum install kernel-file command, or you can manually download the kernel-file and then install it.
  • Install the Oracle Virtual Networking user space application. 
    yum install orclovn-user.x86_64
