Software Releases
Software releases on My Oracle Support are grouped by product family (such
as Oracle Server), then the product (the specific server or blade),
and finally the software release version. A software release contains
all the updated software and firmware for your server or blade as a
set of downloadable files (patches), including firmware, drivers,
tools, or utilities, all tested together to be compatible with your
server.
Each patch is a zip file that contains a ReadMe file and a set of
subdirectories containing firmware or software files. The ReadMe file
contains details on the components that have changed since the prior
software release and the bugs that have been fixed.
My Oracle Support provides the set of software releases for your server as
described in the following table. You can obtain these software
releases by downloading the files from My Oracle Support.
Alternatively, you can download the same firmware and software to your
server using Oracle System Assistant.
