Before you install the FSPM software, verify that your system meets all hardware and software prerequisites mentioned earlier in this document.

Note: In the command, version is the name of the software package release you downloaded. For example, oracle-fspm-4.0.0–1.i486.rpm or oracle-fspm-4.0.0–1.x86_64.rpm.
# rpm -Uvh oracle-fspm-version.i486.rpm oracle-fspm-params-version.noarch.rpm
# rpm -Uvh oracle-fspm-version.x86_64.rpm oracle-fspm-params-version.noarch.rpm
