7.3.15.2 Deprecation of nfsimg Images
When imaging or re-imaging an Oracle Exadata Database Machine server, starting with Oracle Exadata System Software release 19.1.0, NFS images have been deprecated. Use the PXE option with ISO image files instead of NFS image files.
The Secure Eraser package (secureeraser_label.zip) also contains ISO images instead of NFS images starting with Oracle Exadata System Software release 19.1.0.
The relevant sections in the documentation have been updated to reflect this change.
- Imaging a New System in the Oracle Exadata Database Machine Installation and Configuration Guide has the updated imaging instructions
- Securely Erasing Oracle Exadata Database Machine in the Oracle Exadata Database Machine Security Guide has the updated Secure Eraser instructions
