    rpm -ivh osc-oracle-oraclefs-n.n.n.el6.noarch.rpm
    
  2. Issue the following command to verify installation of the RPM file:
    rpm -qa | grep osc-oracle-oraclefs

    Result:The system returns the file name if the installation was successful.
  3. Rediscover the Oracle VM Server upon which you performed the software update. To rediscover the Oracle VM Server, in Oracle VM Manager, on the Servers and VMs tab, right-click the Oracle VM Server, and then select Rediscover Server.
    Refer to the Oracle VM documentation available on the Oracle Technical Network (http://docs.oracle.com) for instructions.

You can create an administrator account on the Oracle FS System for the sole purpose of Oracle VM administration. The account role you choose determines the privileges granted to this account. Create an Administrator 1 account for the sole purpose of Oracle VM administration at the earliest opportunity.
