Oracle^® SuperCluster T5-8 Zones With Oracle Database on Database Domains Configuration Guide

Install or Update Packages From the Remote Repository

1. On the first Database Domain to contain zones, determine if you have the necessary packages to set up zones on the Database Domains:

   # pkg info supercluster supercluster/ssc-exavm supercluster/iscsi supercluster/vnet supercluster/ssctuner 
   

   • If all packages listed in the command are installed, then you have the correct packages. Go to Step 2.
   • If you see that one or more of the packages listed in the command are not installed, then you must get the packages that you need. Go to Step 4.
2. Verify that the exa-family publisher is configured:

   # pkg publisher exa-family
   

   If the output shows that a publisher for exa-family is not configured, add the exa-family publisher:

   1. Go to the following location:

      https://pkg-register.oracle.com/

   2. In the Certificate Requests page, select the Oracle Exadata Database Machine option.
   3. In the Certificate Information page, download the key and certificate, and follow the instructions on the page to install the certificate.
3. Update those packages to the latest versions.
   1. Update the packages from Oracle's IPS repository on this Database Domain:

      # pkg update pkg://exa-family/system/platform/supercluster
      # pkg update pkg://exa-family/system/platform/supercluster/iscsi
      # pkg update pkg://exa-family/system/platform/supercluster/ssc-exavm
      # pkg update pkg://exa-family/system/platform/supercluster/ssctuner
      # pkg update pkg://exa-family/system/platform/supercluster/vnet
      

   2. Repeat Step 3.a for every Database Domain to contain zones.

      When you have updated the packages on every Database Domain to contain zones, go to Verify Configuration Tool Installation.

4. Install the necessary packages:

   # pkg install pkg://exa-family/system/platform/supercluster
   # pkg install pkg://exa-family/system/platform/supercluster/iscsi
   # pkg install pkg://exa-family/system/platform/supercluster/ssc-exavm
   # pkg install pkg://exa-family/system/platform/supercluster/ssctuner
   # pkg install pkg://exa-family/system/platform/supercluster/vnet
