Upgrade to the Latest UEK 5 Kernel With Systems That Have Oracle Storage 12 Gb/s SAS PCIe HBAs

Important Operating Note

After installing the Oracle Linux 7 operating system (OS) on a system that has internal and/or external Oracle Storage 12 Gb/s SAS PCIe HBAs, upgrade to the latest Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel (UEK) 5 before rebooting the system. Otherwise, a kernel panic failure might occur upon rebooting the system after OS installation. In the event that a kernel panic failure does occur, upgrading to the latest UEK 5 kernel addresses the failure.

For more information and instructions on updating the UEK for Oracle Linux, refer to the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel web site at: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E93554_01/.
