Obtain the Latest Version of OEDA

  1. Log in to the Database Domain or the Database Zone Domain.
  2. Download the latest version of OEDA:
    1. Locate the My Oracle Support note that provides information on and access to the latest version of the OneCommand patch.

      The OneCommand patch provides two OEDA commands:

      • config.sh – Starts the OEDA GUI that is used to create the database configuration file that is used by install.sh.

      • install.sh – Provides a CLI set of scripts you run to install the database.

      Access this My Oracle Support note:

      https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&id=888828.1


      Note -  Keep this support note available. Later in Obtain the Latest Database Binary Files, you obtain additional patches from this support note.
    2. Select the most recent OneCommand patch that corresponds to the version of Oracle Database that you want.

      Use the table shown under the heading title: Oracle Exadata Deployment Assistant (OEDA).


      Caution

      Caution  -  You must download patch 19766190 or later.


      Typically, the most recent patch is shown at the top of the table, and will have a higher number than other patches. For example, Patch 18339988 would be a more recent version of the patch than Patch 18222644.

    3. Select the appropriate option from the Platform (Language) field for the operating system on the machine that you are using for OEDA.

      The options include:

      • Apple Mac OS X (Intel) (64-bit)

      • Microsoft screens (32-bit)

      • Linux x86-64

      • Oracle Solaris on x86-64 (64-bit)

      • Oracle Solaris on SPARC (64-bit)


      Note -  The OEDA config.sh script (used in subsequent tasks) can be run on any system that is running one of the supported OSs. However, the OEDA install.sh script (also used in subsequent tasks) must be run on the first I/O Domain, which requires the Solaris (SPARC) version of OEDA. Later in Install Databases (install.sh) The files created by the config.sh script can be used by the install.sh on the I/O Domain.
    4. Click the Download button to download the patch.
    5. Unzip the OneCommand patch zip file.
  3. Repeat this task if necessary.

    You only need to install OEDA on one domain within a RAC:

    • If you installed OEDA on a Database Domain, and you have other Database Domains in your SuperCluster that are on a separate RAC, repeat this task for one Database Domain in each RAC in your system.

    • If you installed OEDA on a Database Zone Domain, repeat this task for each Database Zone Domain in your system.

  4. For each domain where you installed OEDA, obtain and install the latest database binary files.

    Go to Obtain the Latest Database Binary Files.
