4.3.1 Server Script Syntax

Instructions for installing OML4R Server for Oracle Database 19c and 21c. The server.sh script supports a set of command-line arguments that direct its activities.

The script can be run in interactive mode, in batch mode, or in hybrid mode. If you run the script without arguments, it installs or upgrades OML4R Server in interactive mode; it attempts to install the supporting packages; and it creates or configures a database user.

The command-line arguments for the server.sh script are described in the following table. The arguments for the script are the same for Linux. You can obtain a listing of the arguments with brief descriptions by executing the following on a Linux system:

./server.sh -h 
or 
./server.sh --help

When used with --full, the script removes the libraries and R packages under Oracle home in addition to the RQSYS metadata and PL/SQL packages in the database. (full uninstall). See Uninstall Oracle Machine Learning for R
-y	Never prompt.
--ask	Interactive mode (the default).
--keep	When uninstalling OML4R Server, keep the R packages and libraries under Oracle home but remove the database objects. Allows OML4R support to be removed from a single database instance or pluggable database (PDB) without affecting other databases in Oracle home. See Performing a Partial Uninstall.
