2.1.3 Exadata Live Update on Cisco RoCE Network Fabric Switches

Commencing with release 26.2.0, Oracle Exadata System Software incorporates support for live updates on the Cisco RoCE Network Fabric switches. This capability allows you to update the RoCE Network Fabric switch software while the switch continues to forward network traffic, eliminating potential performance impacts caused by a standard switch software update.

Live update on RoCE Network Fabric switches occurs automatically for all eligible updates. You can use an update precheck to verify specific eligibility.
