Available Software Release Packages
Downloads on My Oracle Support are grouped by product family, then product, then
version. The version contains one or more downloads (patches).
For servers and blades, the pattern is similar. The product is the server. Each server
contains a set of releases. These releases are not true software product releases, but
rather are releases of updates for the server. These updates are called software
releases and comprise several downloads, all tested together. Each download contains
firmware, drivers, or utilities.
My Oracle Support has the same set of download types for this server family as shown
in the following table. The same firmware and software can also be downloaded using
Oracle System Assistant.
