Once your account is configured, use your email address and password to login to ULN.
uln_register
The uln_register wizard collects machine information and uploads it to Oracle.
Executing the above command chooses the default channel of ol6_<arch>_latest.
The _latest channels provide RPMs for all the packages in the distribution, including those errata also provided in the _patch channels. The version of any RPM downloadable on the _latest channels is always the most recent available. You can subscribe to other channels using the web interface, after you have registered.
