To ensure the files were not corrupted during transfer, match the checksum of the file to checksum that Oracle publishes for each file. Checksums display next to the download link on the right.
The checksum output follows this format: <checksum> <byte count> <filename>
The following example shows checksum output:
[oracle@vm ~]$ cksum bi_linux_x86_111170_64_disk* 413369417 1828186782 bi_linux_x86_111170_64_disk1_1of2.zip 2568284489 1562917161 bi_linux_x86_111170_64_disk1_2of2.zip 579025974 1855356149 bi_linux_x86_111170_64_disk2_1of2.zip 107813693 755328883 bi_linux_x86_111170_64_disk2_2of2.zip 3702413188 1702929424 bi_linux_x86_111170_64_disk3.zip [oracle@vm ~]$
