Install Server System Tools

Server system tools are available with Oracle System Assistant software and the downloaded Linux OS software package. They include Oracle Hardware Management Pack, LSI MegaRAID Storage Manager, and MegaCLI.


Note -  Oracle Linux 6.5 or newer supports the Oracle Linux Fault Management Architecture (FMA) software, which includes a host-based command-line interface that allows you to view and act on faults from the host operating system using fault management commands similar to those available from the Oracle ILOM Fault Management shell. It is available on Hardware Management Pack 2.3.0.
  1. Do one of the following:
    • If your system does not have Oracle System Assistant:
      1. Download the latest server system tools and drivers package from the My Oracle Support site.

        For more information, refer to Sun Server X4-8 Installation Guide.

      2. Unzip the downloaded tools and drivers package to the server.
      3. Within the unzipped directory file system, navigate to the Linux OS Tools folder:

        Linux/OS_name/version/Tools/tool

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

    • If your system has Oracle System Assistant:
      1. From the OS, open a file browser, and navigate to the Oracle System Assistant USB device.

        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.

  2. To install the software tools, refer to the .txt file located in the tool's directory.
